Question

Is it permitted to make personal requests for one’s material needs on Shabbat while the baby is crying during the circumcision, since I have heard that it is an auspicious time to pray and make requests?

And what is the general ruling regarding praying and making personal requests on Shabbat and holidays, especially if I am in Israel and go to the Western Wall on Shabbat—may I ask for my personal needs?

Answer

It is permitted to make requests at these times and places for one’s material needs, and certainly for spiritual needs.

This is especially so if something is troubling him and he asks and pleads with Hashem for relief; this is permitted even initially.

Attention: You should not learn from one case to another, each case must be analyzed individually. Generally speaking, it's always best to have contact with a Rabbi in person, not just virtual contact. Note that where there is a local Rabbi("Mara Deatra"), one should ask him. The answers are under the responsibility of the rabbi who responded, and not under the responsibility of the website and/or the Head of the Institution.
