Question
During the lighting of Hanukkah candles, one of the candles went out. Is it necessary to relight it?
Answer
Before finishing lighting all the candles, to fulfill the mitzvah of Mehadrin, it is necessary to relight the one that went out. It is also good to relight at any time for the sake of publicizing the miracle (pirsumei nissa).
