'''The Kaddish''' is an ancient [[Aramaic]] [[prayer]] used in various ways during prayer and is found in the [[Jewish]] prayer book - ''the Siddur''. There are two forms of the Kaddish a shorter "mourner's" prayer and a slightly longer "reader's" prayer. Though used for other intentions in the Siddur, it is prayed by the men of the family (and other than the family) of the deceased loved one at the time of decease and at the yearly anniversary remembrance (Jahrzeit). Though it is a prayer for the departed, there is no mention of death. It is rather a prayer for the glorification of God who is the righteous judge.

There are two forms of the Kaddish a shorter "mourner's" prayer and a slightly longer "reader's" prayer. There is also a "half" Kaddish, which is the first half of the reader's Kaddish. The reader's kaddish separates parts of the morning, afternoon, and evening prayers, while the half Kaddish separates smaller divisions within one part.
