Is there a practice or obligation to observe two days of Yom Kippur (like two days of Yom Tov for Diaspora)?
Synopsis
The Rema records that some pious people observed two days of Yom Kippur. This is strongly discouraged by all authorities due to the life-threatening danger of a 48-hour fast. It requires formal vow annulment to stop.
