Rambam wrote the ultimate book of Jewish law. No personal prayers.

Until the Red Heifer.

He notes nine were offered. The tenth will be by Moshiach.

Then he breaks his rule and prays:

“May he be revealed speedily.”

Why put prayer in a law book?

Because this prayer _is_ the law.

Rambam rules we must await Moshiach constantly. So he did what he teaches: he prayed.

The point: As long as Moshiach isn’t here, something vital is missing. Feel it. Ask G-d to bring him.

He writes it once. Learn the rule, no repeats needed.

*The rule: Feel the lack. Pray for Moshiach. Always.*
