Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: My mother performed Hajj in one of the years, and my brother threw the stones on her behalf on the second day without her authorizing my brother. What is the ruling?
Answer:
If she did not authorize him, it does not suffice for her, because intention is necessary, because throwing the stones is an act of worship, and the person must intend to throw the stones either by himself or by his agent. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 1. So if he threw on her behalf without her authorization, this does not suffice, and she must offer a sacrifice in Makkah and distribute it to the poor of the Haram. Yes.
