He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man’s right hand is broken, is it permissible for him to eat with his left hand in that case?

There is nothing wrong with it; he eats with his left hand and takes and gives with it, because it serves in place of the right hand.
The presenter:
Yes.
