Question
I am married and staying for Shabbat at my parents' home, and I am sleeping at a friend's place who lives nearby and left me the apartment for Shabbat. Where should I light the Hanukkah candles?
Answer
Light at your parents' home, or light at your permanent home before you travel for Shabbat, provided it is already after Plag HaMincha [the time listed in the calendar], or appoint an agent to light at your permanent home.
