2 Daily Halachas
from 
 
Our Rabbis tell us - one who studies [at least two] Halachos daily is assured a portion in Olam Haba -  the world to come (Gemorah Megilla 28)  

The Vilna Gaon also said that for every word of Torah one learns one gets 613 Mitzvahs.

Therefore, we are going to learn two daily Halachas every day from Sefer Kitzur Shulchan Aruch and other sources.

Part 2:  BODILY PREPARATIONS
 
1.  One should be dressed in a way that is fitting to dress when going in front of an important person, like a king, in that country.  Therefore, one may not pray in pajamas or house robes, nor in his underwear.
 
 2.  One may not pray in work clothes which he or she would not wear in the street, and therefore, a lady whose wearing an apron must remove it before praying.

A One Minute a Day Torah Thought !
   
"The uniqueness of going out of Mizrayim was that it fundamentally changed the character of the Jewish people to their very core.  After being freed from slavery in Egypt, we became free people within our souls, even if later we were to be again under the yoke of the gentiles.   The exodus from Egypt terminated the possibility of a Jew being a real slave, because his essence is that of a free person.".
