Did Not Drink During the Meal and Is Not Thirsty
Question
A person who finished the meal without drinking but is not thirsty, is he obligated by Torah law to recite Birkat Hamazon?
Answer
Even according to the 'Mordechai', who holds that one must drink to be obligated by Torah law, this applies only when the person is thirsty. However, if he is not thirsty, he is obligated by Torah law even without drinking.
