The ruling on increasing the number of pebbles for stoning the pillars

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling if a pilgrim adds one pebble, or more, when stoning, in order to be certain of the stoning? And what is the ruling if he was forgetful?

Answer:
Yes, if he is uncertain about the number of pebbles, he should build on certainty and complete the count. So if he is uncertain whether he threw six or seven, he counts it as six and throws the seventh. He builds on certainty.
