Question
Shalom,
I would like to know whether the common practice is acceptable: after one person makes the zimun and recites the first blessing of Birkat HaMazon aloud, some of the diners do not recite it together with him, and afterwards they go to wash mayim acharonim and each one recites Birkat HaMazon individually, without eating anything after the zimun.
I would also appreciate specific sources.
Thank you in advance.
Answer
Shalom u-vracha
It is permissible to do so.
See Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim, siman 200.
And siman 194, se’if 2.
