A man stoning on behalf of women and delaying the stoning

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man asks: He is with women. Is it better for him to stone on their behalf, or should he delay the stoning until night, or should he delay the stoning until the last days of Tashreeq?

Answer:
The pillars should be stoned at their prescribed times. The one who is unable should appoint a proxy, and it should not be delayed. If they delay and stone in the correct order, it is sufficient according to a group of scholars, if Allah wills. If they stone at night, it is also sufficient. This is the case in the two Sahihs regarding the statements of the scholars. However, the more desirable option is to delay, and for the one who is unable to appoint a proxy so that the stoning is performed at its virtuous times, which are the times that correspond to the Sunnah.
