A: Absolutely! Tefillin and Prayer are separate Mitzvahs (commandments) that are best done together. Tefillin itself shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes (wrap on, say the 1st part of the Shema and wrap up). POT! (Put On Tefillin) – it’s a great (quick, but lasting) Mitzvah. “All the Torah is compared to Tefillin”,”If you don’t have lots of time for Torah study, Tefillin is a good substitute under the circumstances” ( – the Talmud).
