Question
Hello Rabbi, started the meal together and wants to bless without Zimun because he is in a hurry to leave. What should he do? And does it help if he thinks at the beginning of the meal that he does not want to join? Thank you very much.
Answer
Peace and blessings
If he started with the intention to join, he should perform Zimun with three.
If he started with the intention not to join, he can bless without Zimun.
