Rav Shlomo Katz journeys through the halachot of Shabbat using the sefer Peninei Halakha by Rav Eliezer Melamed, weaving together clarity in psak with the depth of Chassidus and the soul of niggun. From candle lighting to last-minute preparations, from the halachic to the emotional—each episode is a doorway into a more alive, more rooted Shabbos. Whether you’re just beginning or relearning it all again, come enter the holiness of Shabbos from the inside out.© 2025 Rav Shlomo Katz

    18. Lighting Shabbos Candles When You Are A Guest
    Jul 29 2025

    Rav Shlomo Katz explores the halachic layers of being an ore’ach—a guest—and whether lighting in someone else’s space fulfills the mitzvah of hadlakat nerot.

    Drawing from Peninei Halakha, the Shulchan Aruch, the Rema, and the Mishnah Berurah, we unpack minhagim across Ashkenaz and Sephardic communities, modern safety concerns, and the deeper purpose of the mitzvah itself: the light, the place, and the benefit.

    16. Do We Light Before Blessing on the Candle？
    Jul 29 2025

    There’s a beautiful dance at candle-lighting time, but who leads first: the flame or the blessing?

    Rav Shlomo Katz explores the two primary minhagim surrounding the order of lighting Shabbos candles and reciting the bracha.

    Why do some light first and others bless first? What’s the deeper reasoning behind each approach? And how does this moment which is seemingly so small, open the gates to the holiness of Shabbos?
