Question
Opening a freezer on Shabbat to take something out, such as ice cream, if there are lit candles on the freezer. Is it permitted?
Answer
Shalom and blessings
The freezer has become a base for the candles and is considered muktzeh. However, even without the candles, it is muktzeh.
The door of the freezer is not muktzeh and is not a base for the candles. Therefore, it is permitted to open it on Shabbat.
