Jews can recite the shema at there homes at a synagogue or any other respectful place they can recite the shema with other Jews or on there own They contain the command to love God with all one's heart, soul, and might (Deuteronomy 6:5). The morning recital should be preformed as early as possible in any event the shema should be read in the first quarter of the daylight hours The evening recital should be preformed when three stars are viable in the sky before midnight

Women do not have to read the shema recital because they will have to take chare of the children in the family although they can teach the children to read the shema when they are old enough to read.

The importance of reciting the shema for Jews is to remind them of the 1 key principle of Judaism that there is only one God
