Rabbi Azriel Goldfein Shlita, the Rosh HaYeshiva of Yeshivah Gedolah of Johannesburg (a Talmid Muvhak of Rabbi Mordechai Gifter ZATZAL) is in critical condition this afternoon, as he contacted an infection after heart surgery. The next few hours are crucial. Please be Mispallel for Azriel Chaim ben Chana for a Refuah Shleimah.

shouldn’t it be R’ Azriel Chaim ben Chana??
Good point but No! There are no Rebs before Hashem – all are equal, it is just Azriel Chaim ben Chana, may he have a Refuah Shleimo Bimheiro.
“shouldn’t it be R’ Azriel Chaim ben Chana?? ”
it doesn’t really matter either way, Hakodosh Boruch Hu knows who you mean.
what would be better tho, is to add “Besoch she’ar choyley yisroel” at the end of your tfillos.
May he have a Refuah Shelayma
When I daven for many people, I find it hard to think of them only by their first names, and I add Reb so and so. It also tends to remind me, on the spot, of the true respect and hakaros hatov I have for that person, and sometimes makes me cry, but I add the phrase as I feel so far from achieving in my own life, as much as these people already have – and they’ve done so with ropes of love, -putting themselves aside for others -what could be more humbling?!
I hope he has a refuah shlaima b’karov mamash.
