אמירת זכרנו ומי כמוך בחזרת הש"ץ על ידי הציבור

Saying Zochreinu and Mi Chomocha During Chazaras HaShatz by the Congregation

This ruling of the Rebbe explores the Chabad custom regarding the recitation of Zochreinu and Mi Chomocha during Chazaras HaShatz in Aseres Yemei Teshuvah. It discusses who approved this custom, the issues involved, the Rebbe's answers, and why certain verses are or aren't repeated by the congregation.

The four verses added during Aseres Yemei Teshuvah and how their recitation differs according to Chabad custom: who authorized this practice, what issues arise, and the Rebbe's answer regarding Mi Chomocha.

Why people mistakenly began saying these verses after the chazzan, why we start with Zochreinu LeChaim and then say U'Chsov LeChaim Tovim, and the Rebbe's reasoning for not repeating Zochreinu.

Why this rule does not apply to the chazzan himself during Chazaras HaShatz.
