The ruling on one who stoned the pillars before Dhuhr

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. You say: May Allah honor us by performing the obligatory Hajj. We stoned the pillars on the first day of stoning before sunset, and on the second day of stoning, due to the heavy crowd, at around eleven or twelve at night. On the third day of stoning, we stoned about half an hour or an hour before the Dhuhr prayer. Do we owe a sacrificial animal? If we do, how do we handle it, given that there is a long distance between us and the sacred sites, and we are in al-Jubayl in the Eastern Province? Do we pay it to one of the competent authorities in this matter? Or what do you advise us to do? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The stoning done at night on the nights of the eleventh and twelfth is permissible; because the time for stoning extends from the sun passing its zenith until evening, and until after sunset, as many scholars in our time have written; due to dire necessity, pressing need, and hardship. As for the stoning done before Dhuhr on the last day, it is not valid; because it was stoning before the time. Based on this, he owes the fidyah, which is slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it to the poor of the Haram. If he is unable to do that himself, he appoints someone to slaughter it for him there and distribute it to the poor of the Haram.
