Detailed explanation-1: -Shema Yisrael, or the Shema, is the central affirmation of Judaism. The prayer expresses belief in the singularity of God, that is, in God’s oneness and incomparability. It is traditionally recited twice a day, as part of the morning (Shacharit) and evening (Arvit or Ma’ariv) services.
Detailed explanation-2: -Observant Jews recite the Amidah at each of three daily prayer services in a typical weekday: morning (Shacharit), afternoon (Mincha), and evening (Ma’ariv).
Detailed explanation-3: -Jews are supposed to pray three times a day; morning, afternoon, and evening. The Jewish prayer book (it’s called a siddur) has special services set down for this. Praying regularly enables a person to get better at building their relationship with God.
