The ruling on appointing an agent for stoning the pillars during the crowd
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And if the Shaykh (peace and blessings be upon him) had water with him, and because of the intensity of the crowd, the length of the journey, and the hardship it caused them, may Allah be pleased with them, is there anything required of them?
Answer:
There is no harm if there is a crowd and danger, and if there is fear for the women due to the length of the crowd, or if he appoints an agent to do it on his behalf, which suffices for him, and he says, "Praise be to Allah." The danger in these times is severe, without a doubt. But if the crowds are not present, or if he finds a way to do it at times when the people are not there, that is better, explicitly.
Or he brings them after Maghrib or after 'Isha', because the stoning is currently done at night. So if he brings his women at night and stones with them, that is better than appointing an agent during the day. The severe crowd is only on the twelfth day. As for the twelfth day, there is no crowd in it; whoever comes after 'Asr will never encounter a crowd, because the people have departed and hastened. And on the thirteenth day, there is nothing; it is very easy. So the crowd forms only on the eleventh day. This is a possibility for a person: he does not come after the sun passes its zenith, nor after 'Asr, but rather he comes at night and stones. Yes? Yes? If he fears for her, or if she does not obey in walking, because some people stay in a lodging far from the pillars, and a woman does not endure walking with the roads and the crowds, yes? Tell him, "Stone for me, stone for me," or he gives her a pebble and says, "Stone for me." Or he says to her, "Are you willing?" and she says, "Yes." This is offered to her and she answers, "Yes."
