โAnyone who studies Halachot every day is guaranteed that he is destined for the world-to-comeโ (Megilla 28b, Niddah 73a)
Question:
What should one do if one isn't sure if one recite a berachah on a food or drink? Do I repeat the Berachah?
Answer:
Regarding all the berachot if one isn't sure if one recited it or not. Whether it is a Berachah Rishona, (such as Shehakol etc.) or a Berachah Achrona (Boreh Nefashot/Mein Shalosh) one doesn't return to recite the Berachah since it is a derabanan (rabbinical law) and we have a concept called "Safek Berachot Lehakel" meaning if one is in doubt if one recite a berachah one rules leniently and doesn't recite the Berachah. [1]
However; regarding Birkat HaMazon, since Birkat HaMazon is a biblical obligation (See Gemara Berachot 20B) if one isn't sure if one recited Birkat HaMazon, one would need to recite it. [1] According to Sephardic custom, when one recites Birkat HaMazon from doubt whether he recited it or not, only recites the first 3 Berachot until Boneh Yerushalayim since that's the biblical part of Birkat HaMazon. [2] However, according to the Ashkenazic custom one would need to recite the whole Birkat HaMazon. [3]
Bezrat Hashem, Tomorrow we will discuss if women need to repeat Birkat HaMazon if in doubt.
