- Q. See question above. Is it similar to Bikur Cholim and you have to say a tefilah for the imprisoned, and if not why not? Is there a special tefilah for the prisoner himself to say as there is for the ill?
A. As mentioned above, since there is no established tradition of visiting the imprisoned as there is Bikur Cholim for the ill, there is also no popular and well known constituted tefilos for them.
Yet one should recite Tehilim and prayers customary for anyone that is in any need and difficulty.
