Question
A widow who also lights Hanukkah candles mistakenly lit the Shabbat candles first. What should she do?
Answer
Since she has accepted Shabbat by lighting, she should appoint an agent to light the Hanukkah candles, and he will recite the blessing 'lehadlik', while she will recite the blessing 'she'asa nisim'.
