# Melva Malka should be fulfilled as soon after [[Shabbat]] as possible. If one isn’t hungry one may have it later but shouldn’t do an established activity before having Melveh Malka. However, certainly one shouldn’t delay it past Chatzot of the night. However, if one did delay past Chatzot one may still fulfill it until [[Olot HaShachar]]. <Ref> Mishna Brurah 300:2, Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 63: 5 writes that Melveh Malka should be done right after [[Shabbat]] and shouldn’t do a established activity before Melvah Malka. However, at least it should be done by Chatzot because the shaare teshuva 300:1 quotes the arizal that the holiness of shabbat remains until then. Nonetheless, Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]] vol 1 pg 630) adds that if one didn’t do it before Chatzot one may still fulfill this mitzvah until [[Olot HaShachar]]. Kaf Hachayim 300:14 says it should lechatchila be eaten within four halachic hours of shabbat. </ref> | # Melva Malka should be fulfilled as soon after [[Shabbat]] as possible.

# If one extended his Seudat Shelishit until it got dark, some say that one is exempt from having Melveh Malka, and some argue. <Ref> Eliyah Rabba 300:1 writes that he heard that if [[Seudat Shelishit]] until it got dark one is exempt from having Melveh Malka. However, Tehillat David 300, Kaf HaChaim 300:11 disagree with this. </ref> | # If one extended his [[Seudat Shelishit]] until it got dark, some say that one is exempt from having Melveh Malka, and some argue. <Ref> Eliyah Rabba 300:1 writes that he heard that if [[Seudat Shelishit]] until it got dark one is exempt from having Melveh Malka.

#One should try to eat bread for | #One should try to eat bread for Melava Malka, but if he cannot then cake is sufficient. If he cannot even eat cake he should at least have some fruits or vegetables. <ref> Mishna Berura 300:1. Yalkut Yosef (Shabbat vol 1, 300:1). The Gra in Biur Hagra 300:1 says that bread must be eaten at the seuda. In Maaseh Rav 150 it says that the Gra was extremely strict about this halacha. It tells a story about when Rav Chaim Volozhin came to visit him and hadn't ate melava malka because he wasn't feeling well and the Gra told him to eat. Rav Moshe Shternbuch in Teshuvot vihanhagot 2:166 explains that the reason the gra was so strict on this is because he felt it was something that was very neglected. </ref> | ||
