Birchas HaMazon (Grace after meals)
Friday, 12th July 2019
Birchas HaMazon (Grace after meals) should be recited sitting down, even if the eating was done while standing or walking around, as bentching (saying grace) whilst standing or walking cannot be done with proper Kavanah (concentration).
Even those listening to the bentching from another person and being Yotzei (fulfilling the grace) with their bentching must be sitting.
However, if it was recited while standing or walking around [within the room where he/she ate], he/she has satisfied their obligation.
Moreover, if one is walking to a destination and stopping to bentch will cause him/her to arrive late, the Bentching may be said while walking, provided that the eating was also done while walking.
If one ate in a car, bus or train, he/she must sit and bentch in his/her seat.
