Agency in stoning the Aqabah pillar due to congestion

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I am a person who appointed another person. I am a person who appointed another person on my behalf to stone the Aqabah pillar because of circumstances: I am a car driver, and the security authorities prevented me from parking the car, and I remained in the traffic jam for a long time, and my colleague got out and stoned for himself and for me. What is the ruling in this? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
This is not sufficient; it is not an excuse. The congestion goes away and ends. You go and satisfy yourself. Yes, this is not sufficient; it is not an excuse. If the congestion is gone, you go and satisfy yourself, even if it is at night. Yes. It is likely that it is sufficient until after Maghrib. This night is the night of the first day of the days of Tashriq. Many people get out tomorrow, after stoning the pillars in the afternoon, and depart from Mina to Makkah for the farewell tawaf and travel. May Allah grant you success.
