Question:
Sometimes there are some drinks, or water, with the food, and it becomes difficult for a person to drink with his right hand so that the vessel does not get dirty. Is it permissible for him to drink with his left hand in this case?
Answer:
No, no, it is not permissible to drink with the left hand in this case. Also, the doctors advise against drinking directly with the food; they say one should drink at least half an hour after eating, and not drink with the food unless he chokes, or something happens to him, or the broth with the food helps it go down, in which case there is no harm. Yes.
