Prayer for Agunot

by Rabbi Mordechai Tendler

(Hebrew version)

He who blessed our Patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and Moses, Aaron, David and Solomon, and our Matriarchs Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel and Leah—may He release and deliver all the agunot from their plight as deserted wives because, God willing, I now take it upon myself ...

(by the kallah under the huppah)
as I am standing under the huppah, to contribute to charity for their sake and I am also now praying for them.

(at candle-lighting time)
at candle-lighting time I pray for them.

(in the merit of saying Psalms)
as we now say Psalms.

(in the synagogue)
as we now pray for them.

May the Holy One, blessed be He, have mercy on them; may He strengthen and deliver them; may He grant them the opportunity to marry, to stand under their own wedding canopy and to build trustworthy families within the nation of Israel, with all other Jewish women who wish to be married. May we all witness the complete Redemption now, swiftly and soon. Amen.
