# There’s a mitzvah to read the [[Megillah]] once at night and once during the day.<ref>[[Megillah]] 4a, Rambam ([[Megillah]] 1:3), Shulchan Aruch O.C. 687:1. Or Letzion 4:54:14 discusses a person who could only listen to one of the megillah readings, which should he listen to. First, he cites Nodeh Beyehuda 21 who holds that only the daytime megillah reading is Divrei Kabbalah and the nighttime one is derabbanan. However, then he argues the Shulchan Aruch does not distinguish between them. Finally, he concludes that since the night one comes first, he should listen to that one, even though he won't be able to listen to the daytime one the next day. </ref>

This is also the opinion of Chazon Ovadyah (pg 47) and Chayei Adam 195:5. </ref> One should not read the nighttime megillah during Ben Hashemashot except in extenuating circumstances.<ref>Mishna Brurah 692:14 citing the Pri Megadim.
