Traveling After Lighting Candles
Question
Is it permissible for a husband to drive his wife in a car after she has lit Shabbat candles?
Answer
If she makes a condition that she is not accepting Shabbat with the lighting, it is permissible to be lenient in a case of need. A condition can only be made if she lights within forty minutes before sunset, but earlier than that, it is not possible to light and make a condition.
