Question

Since the days of the coronavirus, a Minyan for Maariv has been established in the building's parking lot. We wanted to know if we need to light Hanukkah candles there as we do in the synagogue during Maariv prayer?

Answer

Shalom Rav and Happy Hanukkah

In a Maariv Minyan that is not within a permanent structure, candles should be lit, but no blessing should be recited over the lighting.
