Kadd is a traditional Jewish prayer that is recited in honor of the deceased. It is often said during funeral services and memorials, serving as a way for mourners to express their grief while also affirming their faith in God. The prayer emphasizes the greatness of God and is typically recited in Aramaic. The Kaddish prayer is not about death but rather celebrates life and the sanctity of God's name. It is commonly recited by mourners for eleven months after a loved one's passing, as well as on the anniversary of their death, known as Yahrzeit.
