Stoning before the sun reaches its zenith on the twelfth day, followed by the farewell tawaf

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: On the twelfth day, I was in a hurry and it was difficult for me to stay in Makkah, so I stoned before the sun reached its zenith, then performed the farewell tawaf. He asks: Is there anything required of me for that?

The Shaykh:
What is he saying?

The questioner:
He says: On the twelfth day of the days of Tashreeq, I was in a hurry, and it was difficult for me to stay in Makkah, so I stoned before the sun reached its zenith, then performed the farewell tawaf and left. Is there anything required of me?

The Shaykh:
He performed the tawaf before the sun reached its zenith.

The questioner:
The stoning was before the sun reached its zenith.

The Shaykh:
Consent before marriage.

The questioner:
The twelfth day, then he performed the farewell tawaf. He advanced in the stoning.

The Shaykh:
The stoning is not valid because it was not in its time; the sun had not yet reached its zenith. Is it the stoning or the tawaf?

The questioner:
He says, may Allah preserve you: I stoned before the sun reached its zenith, then performed the farewell tawaf.

The Shaykh:
Neither is valid. Stoning before the sun reaches its zenith is not permissible on the days of Tashreeq; it must be after the sun reaches its zenith. As mentioned to you, they would wait until the sun reached its zenith, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was with them; they did not stone except after the sun reached its zenith. Therefore, a fidyah (ransom payment) is required of you in place of the stoning. Yes.
