[Avodah] Tachanun

[Yisrael Medad]

Gilad Field asks about nefilas apaim in Yerushayim even in a place with no
sefer torah or
even if it is not a makom kavuah for tefillah.

The Ishei Yisrael notes (p. 263, 25:10:39) that it's an Ar"i psak.  Responsa
AG"M says it is because all of Yerushalayim is holy.  SZ'A seems to hold
only the walled old city.  This parallels the saying of the M'ein Sheva on
Shabbat.

And the name is Yichiel Michel Tuchichinsky.  His big discussion of this and
all other Yerushalayim-related issues,
including Megillah (Chapt. 26 & 27), are found in his monumental Ir HaKodesh
v'HaMikdash (my copy is from 1969), Vol. 3, Chapt. 25, and the specific
reference to nefilat apayim is on p. 341, sub-paragraph 8 where he refers to
the Rokeach, Sefer Minhagei Yerushalayim 9 and another book which is
abbreviated as bet-reish-chaf-yud, 131.
