Women’s delegation in stoning the pillars due to the crowd

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This question has been asked many times before: Do women have the right to delegate the stoning of the pillars because of the crowd?

Answer:
They should not push us or put us in danger, but they may delegate the stoning at other times, such as at night after Maghrib. No, not during the crowd; they should not put us in danger or push us. If it is not possible for us to do it during the crowd, we delegate it. They should never put us in danger. But at night, as far as we know, there is no crowd for an hour at night. If you ask for it today during Dhuhr and Asr, there is a crowd, so they may delegate the stoning after Magrib, and praise be to Allah, until the end of the night. The stoning is valid after Maghrib, after Isha, and throughout the night. Yes.
