About Candle Lighting
It is considered a great mitzvah and responsibility to honor the Sabbath by lighting candles 18 minutes before sunset on Friday evening.This unique commandment, entrusted to the Jewish woman, is rich with meaning and purpose.

It is very important to know the exact candle-lighting time, because we are not allowed, under any circumstances, to kindle these lights after sunset.
