I stoned the pillars for myself and my wife

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 17962 )
Q1: In light of the crowding we hear about at the jamarat, I performed the stoning on behalf of my wife, knowing that she is young and capable, by stoning the jamarat for myself and for her on the eleventh and twelfth days, since we hastened our Hajj. As for the stoning of the Jamarat al-Aqabah, we stoned it together. I should mention that when I stoned on the eleventh day, I found a great crowd, and if I had brought her with me, she would not have been able to stone. As for the twelfth day, all the passengers had packed our luggage and boarded the bus, which we stopped very far from the jamarat. My wife remained there with the other women, and I went to stone for myself and for her after the 'Asr prayer. When I went down to the jamarat, I found that there was no crowd there, but there was great hardship, which Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) knows best, that prevented me from returning to the bus to bring my wife so she could stone the jamarat herself. I stoned for her after I had stoned for myself, and I returned to the bus. Is there anything required of me or of her in this?
A1 : If the situation is as you described, then it is obligatory for your wife to offer a sacrificial animal:
which is a sheep that is acceptable for the 'Id sacrifice. She should slaughter it in Makkah and distribute it to the poor of the sacred precinct. If she is unable to slaughter the expiation, then she should fast for ten days, because there is no valid excuse that would exempt her from performing the stoning herself.
