Nussach Sefard recites vidui and 13 middot daily. This is also common
in Israel, even among adherents of minhag Ashkenaz.
This minhag is based on the Zohar parshat Bo and the Zohar 'Hadash.
Under influence of the Ari, many congregations incorporated the
recitation of vidui and 13 middot into the daily liturgy. It is found
in the siddur of the SheLaH, too.
It is unclear to me whether those congregation who stick minhag avot
and do not recite vidui daily, do so out of allegiance to past
practices only, or also because of a perceived disadvantage or even
halakhic problem in reciting that daily.
Does anyone know of actual opposition to this daily recitation of
vidui? Any sources opposing it?
