Purim Mitzvot
Megillat Esther
There are 2 public reading of the megillah: once on Purim night and again on Purim day.Matanot LaEvyonim
One of Purim’s primary themes is Jewish unity. We were all in danger together so we celebrate together. Hence, on Purim day we place special emphasis on caring for the less fortunate by giving money or food to at least two needy people or making a donation to a charitable organization.
Mishloach Manot
On Purim we emphasize the importance of friendship and community by sending gifts of food to friends. On Purim day, send a package containing at least two different ready-to-eat food items to at least one acquaintance.
Seudat Purim
During the course of Purim day celebrate with a festive Purim meal.
Before Purim
Zachor
On the Shabbat before Purim, we read the Torah section called Zachor, in which we are enjoined to remember the deeds of Haman's ancestors, Amalek.
The Fast of Esther
To commemorate the prayer and fasting that the Jewish people held during the Purim story, we usually fast on the day before Purim. However, this year the fast was on Thursday since the day before Purim is Shabbat.
Machatzit HaShekel
It is a tradition to give three coins in “half” denominations (e.g., three half-dollar coins) to charity, to commemorate the biblical halfshekel contribution. Since it is customary to give the coins as close to Purim as possible, this is usually done on the afternoon of the Fast of Esther before the reading of the Megillah
