On the question of whether or not saying Selihot in the evening, which was raised a short time ago. The Late Haham Gaon writes in Minhat Shelomo: 'There is no reference to this custom in any rulings by known Rabbinic authorities. Rabbi Shemtov Gaguine suggests it may have been introduced because the inclement weather common in England and Holland during Elul could prevent people from attending during the early morning hours...' Haham Gaon also points out that Rabbi Moshe Feinstein (who was the great Ashkenazi Posek 1895-1986) ruled if it is impossible for a congregation to hold Selihot in the early morning hours, it should be done in the evening so that the services should not fall into dissuse. We will have daily Selihot services at Bevis Marks at 7 a.m. (Sundays at 8.30 a.m.)
