- Q. See question above: When one does indeed recite the above mentioned “Yehi Ratzon” is it usual and correct to mention Hashem’s name also?
Therefore if one is in doubt whether he should be eating the food, should he then avoid saying Hashem’s name, specially if he is just going to eat only a small piece?
A. Although Mishna Berura ( O.H. 583:2) does mention the name of Hashem when reciting the above short prayers, based on Bais Yosef, Avudraham and Sidur Yaavetz. However the tradition of many, is to avoid reciting His name as recorded in Kitzur Shulchan Aruch (129), Baal Hatanya and many others.
