I forgot where i saw it, I’d imagine it would probably be found in the sefer “minhag Yisroel Torah”, that its a segulah to relight the havdalah candle after you put it out to prevent a fire in the house.
Oh. In my limited brain capacity and ultimate stupidity, I did not realize it was a “segulah” type thing. I thought it was a “practical advice” issue and I could not, for the life of me, figure out how reigniting a candle reduced the chances of a fire.
How heretical of me not to realize that.
