[chicago-aneinu] DAVENING FOR A TALMID CHACHOM

from hakhel today *WHEN DAVENING FOR A TALMID CHACHOM: *We were recently asked to daven for the health of HaRav Elyashiv, Shlita. How should we mention his name in our Tefillos? HaRav Elyashiv’s son in-law, HaRav Chaim Kanievsky, Shlita (in the Sefer *Ishei Yisroel*)* *rules that when davening for a Talmid Chachom one should not only say his name, but as a sign of respect place the title *‘Reb’* in front of the name. Thus, according to HaRav Kanievsky, when davening for Rav Elyashiv, one would say *Reb Yosef Shalom ben Chaya Musha*.
