If you're staying at someone else’s home or a hotel, do you still light Shabbos candles? And if you do… should you make a bracha?
Rav Shlomo Katz explores the halachic layers of being an ore’ach—a guest—and whether lighting in someone else’s space fulfills the mitzvah of hadlakat nerot.
Drawing from Peninei Halakha, the Shulchan Aruch, the Rema, and the Mishnah Berurah, we unpack minhagim across Ashkenaz and Sephardic communities, modern safety concerns, and the deeper purpose of the mitzvah itself: the light, the place, and the benefit.
