The Daily Halacha Moment - Forgot To Recite Berachah 🗣️
״כל השונה הלכות בכל יום - מובטח לו שהוא בן העולם הבא״ (נידה עג ע״א, מגילה כח:)
“Anyone who studies Halachot every day is guaranteed that he is destined for the world-to-come” (Megilla 28b, Niddah 73a)
Question:
If one who accidentally ate or drank something without reciting a berachah first, what does one do if one has not yet swallowed?
Answer:
One who drank a drink and realized before he swallowed that he did not yet recite a blessing, may swallow and does not need to spit out the drink. However, before taking another sip, a berachah is required [1]. Ashkenazim hold that if one has more to drink one should spit out even the first sip and recite a berachah on the next sip. [2]
Furthermore, one who put food in his mouth without reciting a blessing, and then realized before swallowing that he has not yet recited a berachah, he should push the food to one side of his mouth and recite the appropriate berachah before swallowing. However, if it is a type of food that is not something disgusting to spit out, then one should first spit out the food, then recite the berachah. [3]
It's good to mention, putting something initially in your mouth and reciting a berachah with the food in your mouth is not permitted. As the pasuk states, “one’s mouth should be full of Your praises.”
