Is It Too Late To Light Chanukah Candles? | Daily Halacha #97

It’s late, shkiah has passed, the kids are half-asleep, and you’re wondering: did I miss the time to light Chanukah candles, or is it still okay, and with a bracha? In this Daily Halacha with Rabbi Yaacov Haber, we learn how the Aruch HaShulchan understands the sugya of zman hadlakas ner Chanukah across different periods of Jewish history: Chazal, the Rishonim, his own time, and our homes today. Based on Tosafos, the Tur, the Rama, and the Mishnah Berurah with Shaarei Tzion, Rabbi Haber explains the classic window of “from shkiah until tichleh regel min hashuk,” the difference between lighting outside, in a window, or deep inside the house, and what to do if you come home very late and the family is already sleeping. We also discuss when it is better to wake the kids, and when to light without a bracha because of safek brachos lehakel. 💬 Questions about your own Chanukah candle timing or late lighting?
