Question
This coming Purim is on Friday. I live in Brooklyn and will be at work. What are the laws regarding times to eat the Purim Seuda since Purim is on Friday? What is the earliest time? what is the latest time? What about not being full for the Shabbat meal?
Answer
The Rm"a writes that one should eat before Chatzot (12:03 in New York) the Purim Seuda so that one should enter Shabbat with an appitite.
