Masechet & Hilchot Shabbat 46b-47a: The lit candle & why is it Muktza as long as it remains lit - even for Rebby Shimon? This will lead to a discussion about דבר שאינו מתכוין when he has no interest in extinguishing the candle or in enjoying wearing the Sha'atnez. Would this be prohibited by virtue of a Rabbinic injunction to avoid the possibility of his having כוונה? If not, could the candle be Muktza because he is קובע לו מקום?
