Stoning the Pillars and the Farewell Tawaf Before the Sun Reaches Its Zenith on the Twelfth Day

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding Hajj, if a person stons the pillars on the twelfth day before the sun reaches its zenith because he is in a hurry to leave, and also performs the farewell tawaf before the zenith, is that sufficient for him? Is he required to pay a fidyah (ransom payment)?

Answer:
This is an error. Why does he stone before the zenith? If a person leaves something in his Hajj and lets it slip, and something minor remains, he should wait until after the zenith to stone at the proper time for stoning, and perform the farewell tawaf at the proper time for the farewell tawaf. This is playing with Hajj. If he does this, he is required to pay two fidyahs: one for stoning before the zenith and one for performing the farewell tawaf at the wrong time. Yes, my brothers, the one who comes from far away, travels for Hajj, loses money, and gets tired, if he lets slip a small part of the Hajj and does not complete it but rushes to leave, this is a trick of Satan. Yes.
