The ruling on one who leaves the obligatory acts of Hajj due to illness

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abu 'Abdullah, says: Shaykh Salih, may Allah preserve you, last year my brother performed Hajj while he was ill. It was the Hajj of Islam, but he did not spend the night at 'Arafah, he did not spend the night at Mina, he did not stone the pillars, and he did not perform the tawaf of ifadah. He returned home due to a health issue.

Answer:
Yes, his return home or to the hospital for the sake of his illness is permissible. Spending the night at Muzdalifah and spending the night at Mina are dropped from him because of his illness, as he cannot bear it. These are obligatory acts that are dropped when one is unable to perform them. Yes.
