Question:
What is the wisdom behind the stones falling into the pool? And why is it not sufficient to throw at the pillar?
Answer:
The pillar is not the place of stoning; it is merely a marker for the pool. The place of stoning is the pool itself, which is where the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) threw the stones and where the Muslims threw them at the pool. The pillar was not made to be thrown at; it was made as a marker for the target.
