Stoning the Aqabah Pillar Before the Sun Rises
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q2: After we returned home from Muzdalifah at three in the morning, my father and my brothers went to stone the Aqabah Pillar, having appointed them to stone on our behalf, my mother and I. They finished stoning the Aqabah Pillar just as the Fajr adhan was about to be called or as it was being called. Is their stoning of the pillar before the sun rises valid or not?
A2 : It is permissible to stone the Aqabah Pillar after midnight on the night of the Day of Sacrifice, and it is permissible for one who is unable to do so to appoint someone to stone on his behalf. It is better for the strong to stone on the day of the festival after the sun rises, following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
