One who is incapacitated at Muzdalifah and what is required of him regarding stoning and circumambulation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, one of us fell after arriving from the Day of 'Arafah at Muzdalifah, and his feet were struck with a complete incapacity that keeps him seated for a number of days. We stoned the pillars on his behalf yesterday. What is required of him regarding the remaining pillars?

Answer:
There is no blame on him as long as it was an accident that struck him, and he hit his feet in a way that harms him. He should appoint someone to stone the pillars on his behalf. The tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah) is delayed; the tawaf has no limited time. If he delays it until he can circumambulate, if Allah wills, or circumambulates in a wheelchair, or is carried, that is fine. The sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) is likewise. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
