Is It Permitted to Light Two Chanukah Menorahs

Question

Is it permitted to light 2 Chanukah menorahs? 

I would also appreciate a reply by email.

Answer

Greetings and blessings,

Among Ashkenazim, all members of the household light, each person with his or her own Chanukah menorah, and each one recites the blessings according to halacha. Among Sephardim, only one lighting is done for the entire household, and if, nevertheless, a woman wishes to light on her own, she does not recite the blessings. At times, halacha requires lighting two Chanukah menorahs because of suspicion, but this is almost not relevant in our time, when many customarily light inside the house.
