Uh, the Sefardim in Chutz La'aretz, uh, also do Birchas Kohanim every single tefillah, whatever, every Shacharit.
And the question is, uh, first of all, why don't they do it by Mincha? So that's stam because of Shechiyach Shekus, meaning we're afraid that once people go out about their day, there's a possibility that they may get drunk.
And therefore, that's why we only do it, um, but that's why they only do it by Shacharit.
On time to Tzippur, as long as it's past Mincha Ketana in Eretz Yisrael, they, they duchen by Mincha as well.
And, uh, and, uh, you know, this is why, God, there's some kasayra, um, the minhag is to duchen by Shacharit, because once people make Kiddush, so now already you're, you're let out of the cage.
So then at that point, there's a chashash of shechiyach, of Shechiyach Shekus.
It's kind of the big tumul about that maybe by Rosh Hashanah we should also duchen by Shacharit, because we go make Kiddush.
Now, we know that here in Chutz La'aretz, we don't duchen except for on Yom Tov, and also only by Yom Tov, or Mussaf.
It's interesting that in Tzefas, the minhag is that they don't duchen every day.
