The Number of Stones Thrown on the Days of Tashriq and the Time for Stoning

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence, the questioner says: After throwing the first pillar, how many stones does he throw after that? And at what time is it thrown?

Answer:
The first pillar, meaning the large one, is on the Day of Sacrifice. On the eleventh day and the days of Tashriq, he stones the three small pillars: the one closest to Mina, then the middle one after it, then the last large one. Each pillar is stoned with seven stones. The time for stoning begins when the sun passes its zenith, when the time for the midday prayer begins. So he starts stoning after the midday prayer, after the afternoon prayer. If he needs to, he may stone after the sunset prayer or after the night prayer; there is no harm in that.
