677 ‎[1] 1. A lodger for whom no-one is kindling in his own house needs to give a perutah [i.e. a nominal sum] to the landlord to partner with him in the oil of the Hanukkah light. And if he has his own entrance, he needs to light in his entrance, even though that residence is only designated for sleeping, and he eats at the landlord's table. And it is the same law for a son who eats with his father. *Rem"a: And there are those that say that nowadays when we kindle actually inside, one should kindle at the place where one eats, and so [people] have made it a custom. (Responsa of Rashba Section 542)* ‎[2] 2. A minor who has reached the age of education needs to kindle. ‎[3] 3. There are those that say that even though [others] are kindling for him in his own house, if he is in a place where there are no Jews he should kindle with the benedictions. *Rem"a: For he is obligated to see the lights, (Mordechai) and so is our custom. And even if he is near Jews and can see the lights, if he wants to be stringent upon himself and kindle for himself, he should kindle and recite the benedictions upon them, and so is our custom. (Terumat Hadeshen, Mahar"il, and Responsa of Mahar"il) Section 145).* ‎[4] 4. What remains on the eighth day of the oil necessary for the measure for kindling — he makes a bonfire for it and burns it by itself, for it has been set aside for its mitzvah. And if it becomes mixed with other oil and there is not sixty parts to nullify it, there is [an opinion] that says that one should not add to it in order to nullify it.
