The Time for Stoning the Pillar for One Who Accompanies the Weak

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If one is in the company of the weak and travels after midnight, what is better for him: to stone the pillar after midnight, or to wait until the sun rises?

Answer:
It is better to wait until the sun rises; in fact, it may even be obligatory. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to strike the thighs of the young men who went with those who hastened, saying, “O my son,
Do not stone until the sun risesلا ترموا حتى تطلع الشمس
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 4:904
.” Yes.
