הדלקת נרות

Candle Lighting

A mitzvah traditionally entrusted to Jewish women: to light candles just before sunset on the eve of Shabbat and festivals, and to recite a blessing over them, drawing the holiness of the day into the home. The candle light symbolizes peace and rest in the household, which is why the exact lighting time for each city matters. The times shown here mark when to light.
