Question
A woman fell asleep on a chair for about an hour in the middle of Birkat Hamazon. What is the ruling regarding such a long interruption in the blessing?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
The interruption does not require returning to the beginning of Birkat Hamazon, but only to the beginning of the blessing where she fell asleep.
