The ruling on one who travels before completing the rites of Hajj and appoints another to complete them?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh Salih (may Allah preserve you), this is a continuation of the previous question about those who perform the obligatory Hajj and neglect some of its pillars. For example, we receive questions stating that on the eleventh day, a person remains with the stoning of the pillars still to be done, then he returns without completing this great obligation in his lifetime.

Answer:
No, some people go on the day of 'Id. Yes, on the day of 'Id. If he says, "Hajj is 'Arafah," and he goes on the day of 'Id, this is playing with it; it is the devil's trickery. He came, bore the burden, and spent the expenses, so how can he play with his Hajj and not complete it? Allah (Mighty and Majestic) said:
And complete the Hajj and 'umrah for Allahوَأَتِمُّوا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ لِلَّهِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
So it is necessary that he complete the rites of Hajj that were legislated and for which he entered the state of ihram.
so whoever has made Hajj obligatory upon himself thereinفَمَن فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ الْحَجَّ
[Al-Baqarah 2:197]
That is, he bound himself to the ihram of Hajj or 'Umrah. He is required to complete what he entered ihram for, and he must not play with his Hajj. It is not sufficient for him to appoint someone for the remainder. The remaining pillars of Hajj and the obligations of Hajj remain in his liability.
They remain in his liability, so he must fear Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and complete the Hajj. Otherwise, he does not perform Hajj this year; he waits until a suitable time comes. Yes.
