Question

He was sitting and eating in the sukkah and recited the blessing 'Leishev BaSukkah'. During the meal, it started to rain, so he closed the roof and covered the sukkah. When the rain stops and he returns to eat, does he need to recite the blessing 'Leishev BaSukkah' again?

Answer

Since the mitzvah was nullified when he covered it, he needs to recite the blessing again.
