Passage 2. Should a person who joined Hakafot at his synagogue later visit another that has not yet finished Hakafot, he ought to join in their song and rejoicing. true heading MASHIV HARUACH U'MORID HAGESHEM Passage 1. The gabbai proclaims "מַשִּׁיב הָרוּחַ וּמוֹרִיד הַגָּשֶׁם" prior to the congregation's recitation of the Musaf Amidah on Shemini Atzeret. Thereafter, in place of saying מוֹרִיד הַטָּל within the Amidah's second blessing, one commences reciting מַשִּׁיב הָרוּחַ וּמוֹרִיד הַגָּשֶׁם. true Passage 2. A person not praying with the congregation, having no intention of praying with a later minyan, who has not yet offered the Shacharit Amidah, yet heard the gabbai's proclamation prior to reciting the morning service, should say מַשִּׁיב הָרוּחַ... during his morning service. true heading SIMCHAT TORAH DAY Passage 1. Chabad practice is to hold Hakafot during Shacharit of Simchat Torah. All seven Hakafot proceed without pause, with no intervals of singing and dancing, while three and a half circuits are made around the bimah. Singing and dancing then follow. true Passage 2. Custom is that every male receive an aliyah on Simchat Torah. Because only eight aliyot exist, one of these courses is taken: a) The congregation divides into several smaller minyanim. b) Several people are called together for each aliyah. true Passage 3. The fifth aliyah bears the name kol hane'arim, since every boy under thirteen years of age joins the one called for that aliyah. Together they say the blessings along with the one summoned for the aliyah. true heading CHANUKAH Passage 1. Custom is to employ oil lamps fitted with cotton wicks for the menorah. For the shamash (the candle used to kindle the lights), a beeswax candle is employed. true Passage 2. According to Chabad custom, the Chanukah lights are kindled after sunset, yet before the stars appear. Should that prove impossible, they should be lit shortly afterward. true Passage 3. The lights must remain alight no less than half an hour past nightfall. Prior to kindling them, one should confirm that enough oil is present (or if candles are used, that they are large enough) to last at least 50 minutes. When kindled after nightfall, a half-hour's burning suffices. true Passage 4. Except on Friday night, one ought to remain beside the Chanukah lights roughly half an hour following their kindling. true Passage 5. Should one of the lights be extinguished within this span, custom is to rekindle it. true Passage 6. The illumination given by the Chanukah lights should not be used, for instance to read or to work by that glow. true Passage 7. Custom holds that women refrain from labor throughout the period the Chanukah lights must remain alight. true Passage 8. Should one fail to kindle the Chanukah lights right after sunset, he may light them through the night, so long as some household members remain awake. If none remain awake, he kindles them without saying the blessings. (It is, however, fitting that he wake them so a blessing can be recited.) true Passage 9. On Chanukah Friday, Minchah is recited early. Then one kindles the Chanukah lights (followed by the Shabbat candles). Extra oil (or larger candles) should be supplied for these Chanukah lights, ensuring they last until a half hour past nightfall. true Passage 10. Saturday night, one should pray Maariv at the soonest hour, so the menorah may be kindled at the first opportunity. true
