Question
If one lights before nightfall and is delayed until nightfall, how should they proceed?
Answer
If one prays Maariv immediately after lighting the candles, they should prioritize Maariv first, as it is "frequent." However, they can decide to pray Maariv later, and then light the candles first [and this is the recommended practice].
