Question
All the windows of the house face the mountains, and only the bathroom window faces the street. Can one light the Hanukkah candles there?
Answer
Light in the bathroom window and recite the blessing before entering, and light in the house a menorah — one side of which is completely sealed so that the candles are not visible from the bathroom at all, and light by extending your hand and turning it to the appropriate position.
