Question
If someone did not hear the beginning of Havdalah, have they fulfilled their obligation? And if they have fulfilled it, from where must they hear to fulfill the obligation? Thank you
Answer
Shalom Rav
The verses are not essential.
If one only heard the blessing of Havdalah and did not hear the blessing over the wine, they have fulfilled their obligation.
