One Who Left Hashem's Name Out of a Beracha

One Who Left Hashem's Name Out of a Beracha
Day: Thursday
Date: June 30, 2016
Parshat: Shelah
Yalkut Yosef: O"H: 214


Any beracha that does not have the name of Hashem mentioned is not considered to be a proper beracha. Therefore, one who said a beracha but left out the name of Hashem needs to say the beracha again. If one left out the word "Hashem" but said "Elokeinu" or vice verse he still has fulfilled his obligation and does not say a new beracha. However, there is a disagreement among the poskim whether one who left out even just the word "ha'olam" needs to say a new beracha or not. Our custom follows the opinion of those poskim who require a new beracha and therefore one who left out even just the word "ha'olam" needs to say the beracha again.
