It Is A Torah Mitzvah To Hear The Shofar On Rosh Hashana (Though Not On Shabbat, Which Is The 1st Day Of Rh This Year), Consisting Of 3 Teruot, With An Added Sound Before & After Each Teruah (A Simple Tekiya). In All, This Would Be A Total Of 9 Shofar Blasts. But Since There Are 3 Types Of Terua Shevarim (Akin To Sighing), Teruah (Akin To Crying) & Shevarim-teruah (A Combination Of Both), Our Custom Is To Add These Sounds And So Hear At Least Thirty Shofar Blasts (Shevarim-teruah Are Considered Two Blasts). An Enhancement Of The Mitzva (For A Total Of 60 Blasts) Is To Sound The Shofar During The Chazan’s Repetition Of Musaf. Some Rabbis Went Further, Increasing The Mitzva To 100 Blasts (Or 101 For Sefardim), Including During The Silent Amida. It Was The Ari Hakadosh Who Spread This Minhag To Most Jewish Communities. In Cases Of Illness Or Extenuating Circumstances, Sounding 30 Or 60 Shofar Blasts Would Be Halachically Proper And Absolutely Fulfills The Mitzva.
