When Women Make a Zimun PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 14 July 2009 14:12
Women are required to say Birkath HaMazon.  So why can't they join a zimun with men?  Some rishonim say they can, though it may not have been common practice.  Nowadays Rav Moshe Feinstein permits mixed seating, based on the fact that men and women ate the korban Pesah together.  When women eat by themselves, they are required to make a zimun.

would the women eating by themselves (with no men present) who are required to make a Zimun use Hashem's name? According to a sephardi halachic source, they are to refrain from doing so.
