The holy Ariza"l says there isnโt another day in the year that reaches the level of holiness and holds blessings as Purim does. there for so much can be accomplished in this time! Especiallyย through prayer!!!
The custom of giving the half shekel before Mincha on
Taโanis Esther:
As we wrote regarding Shabbos Shekalim, the deeper purpose of giving the half shekel is to overcome the dinim, to empower the merits of Israel and to minimize the positive effects of the charities of the idolaters. Because, as written in Tractate Baba Batra, Israel will not be redeemed until the effects of the
charities of the nations has ceased.
ย
On the day of Taโanis Esther, before Mincha, it is customary that each person gives "a commemoration of the half of the shekel" to the Gabbai. The amount to give is the value of 9 Draham of refined silver. Some people give NIS 45, some give NIS 15, and some give 3 half shekels. I saw Rav Israel Avichai
give, besides that money, also three shekels of Pidyon Haben. He told me to focus on the meditations done at the prayer Vayvarech Dovid, when donating.
ย
The custom of kabbalists, aside for giving the commemoration of the half shekel, is to also give to a number of other charity of the highest caliber for the nation (as is expanded in our ebook on
Purim).

Say this prayer before giving the โhalf shekelโ of mincha today or any other tzedaka:
