<div dir="ltr"><div><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div><font size="3">Rav Elyashiv (Halichos V'Hanhagos) holds that you must
optimally light Shabbos and Yom Tov candles in the Succah. If you cannot,
you must light it in a place where the light of the candles gives off
light into the Succah.</font></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>We have an easy way to fulfill the mitzva without worrying about burning the sukka. One of the long walls of our sukka is the wall of our house, which has sliding glass doors to the yard. So I light on a little table that is placed against the glass door right outside of the sukka. This way the lights are not in the sukka and we see them as clearly as if they are inside the sukka and their light shines into the sukka. <div>
<br></div><div>We also have bushes inside of our sukka, inside the other wall, which is a fence. The bushes are cut short so they are not anywhere near the schach or the pergola and the bushes help to make the wall less see-through and a much more visually interesting wall. </div>
