Question
He blessed the candles, and they fell before he lit them, causing the oil and wicks to spill, requiring them to be prepared again. Should he bless again?
Answer
According to the Mishnah Berurah, one should bless again unless there is a little oil left to light. The Maharam Shik holds that one should not bless again.
