Question

If someone ate watermelon during the meal and therefore is not thirsty, is he obligated in Birkat Hamazon according to the Mordechai, who holds that the Torah obligation for Birkat Hamazon is only when one drank during the meal?

Answer

If he is not currently thirsty, he is obligated according to the Mordechai by Torah law, and this is included in 'and you shall be satisfied'.
