KOL HASHONEH HALACHOT BECHOL YOM MUVTACH LO SHEHOO BEN HAOLAM HABA


For the Ilui Neshama of Avraham ben Ester ZT’L.
Translated from Yalkut Yosef:

1. There is a De’ah (opinion) that says one who lights candles in a place where there is wind all the time fulfills the obligation of lighting Chanukah Candles. However, according to Rav Ovadya Yosef shlit’a (who is backed up by many Achronim), whoever lights Chanukah candles in a place where they know the candles will blow out, they must re-light the candles because thy have not fulfilled the obligation of lighting Chanukah candles.

2. If during the time of lighting Chanukah candles there wasn’t enough oil/wax to light the candles for the appropriate time (a full 30 minutes after Nightfall), even if during the 30 minutes the person who lit fills up the oil holder/wax placement to add more time to the actual lighting, this person did not fulfill the Mitzvah of Nerot Chanukah. The act of lighting the Chanukah candles is the act of doing the Mitzvah, therefore at the time of lighting the candles everything must be like Halacha.
