Is the blessing 'Mein Sheva' (or 'Magen Avot') recited on the first night of Pesach that falls on Shabbat?
Synopsis
The blessing 'Mein Sheva' is NOT recited on the first night of Pesach even if it falls on Shabbat, because Pesach night is 'Leil Shimurim' (a night of divine protection) and does not require this protective blessing.
