The ruling on stoning the pillars with shoes

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Some of the pilgrims, may Allah guide them, stone the pillars with their shoes with force.

Answer:
This is wrong. Stoning with shoes, slippers, pebbles from al-Kawar, or pebbles from al-Lubn— all of this is wrong. One should not stone except with small pebbles, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did. We ask Allah for safety and seek refuge in Allah from... life is not continuous. It is now ten o'clock.
