Question
Is it permissible to eat at a Sheva Brachot meal and rely on a phone guard, and asked a halachic authority about Maariv, who said one should be stringent because there is intoxication.
Answer
After Mincha Ketana, it is forbidden to eat at a large meal such as a Sheva Brachot meal, and a real guard is needed. It is sufficient to speak with someone on the phone to call and remind him, and for Maariv, a real guard is needed. If they start before sunset, no guard is needed.
