Eating on Friday
- One is not allowed to eat a meal that’s unusual to eat during the rest of the week. [1]
- However, if the meal is for a Brit Milah or Pidyon HaBen it’s permitted. [2]
- Strict halacha permits one to eat an amount that’s normal for a meal of everyday of the week, however it’s one isn’t allowed to make into a meal with bread after 9 hours (in Shaot Zmaniot). [3]
- It’s totally permissible to have a snack the entire day of Friday and there’s no preference not to eat after 9 hours. [4]
- Past the 9th hour, one shouldn’t drink so much that one won’t be hungry for the Shabbat meal. [5]

- ↑ S”A 249:2 writes that it’s forbidden to eat a feast that’s not usual for everyday on Friday even a meal for a mitzvah like Seudat Eirusin.
- ↑ Rama 249:2 writes that if the meal of a mitzvah that has a set time such as Brit Milah and Pidyon HaBen one can have the meal even on Friday. Yalkut Yosef (Shabbat vol 1 pg 62) agrees and adds that preferably one should have the meal before Chatzot. Yalkut Yosef (Shabbat vol 1 pg 531) writes that even a meal for a Brit Milah that has been pushed off is permissible on Friday.
- ↑ S”A 249:2 writes that halachically it’s permissible to have a meal the whole day, because we hold like Rabbi Yose in Pesachim 98b. However, even Rabbi Yose agrees that establishing a meal is forbidden after 9 hours.
- ↑ S”A 249:2 who writes that one can have a snack the whole day and preferably one shouldn’t have a normal meal after 9 hours. Mishna Brurah 249:15 writes this explicitly that a snack is permitted the whole day.
- ↑ Mishna Brurah 249:14 writes that the permit o have snacks the whole day doesn’t include drinks. He concludes that one should at least be careful from 9 hours and on not to have too much that one won’t be hungry for the Shabbat meal.
