Question

I am married, and during Shabbat Hanukkah, I eat all the meals at my parents' house but return to sleep at my own home. Where should I light the Hanukkah candles?

Answer

One who eats three meals on Shabbat at his parents' house and sleeps at his own home should ideally eat one of the Shabbat meals at his own home and light there. However, if he cannot light there himself or through an agent, he should light at his parents' house.
