The ruling on stoning the pillars at night for women
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
A group of us left Muzdalifah with our female relatives at twelve o'clock at night and went to Mina, then we stoned the Jamrat al-Aqabah at two-thirty in the night. Is that valid? Then, after we stoned, we performed the Tawaf al-Ifadah and the Sa'y after Fajr?
The Shaykh:
Welcome.
The questioner:
Stoning at night, or delaying the stoning of the days of the days of Tashreeq to the thirteenth day, or delegating it, and this is for the one who is unable to stone. Also, is crowding by men considered an excuse for women to delegate? And does stoning at night count for the previous day or for the coming day?
The Shaykh:
Stoning at night counts for the previous day, from when the sun sets, and it is better than delegating, and better than delegating at night, and better than delaying to the thirteenth day, and better than delegating. Yes.
The questioner:
I am an employee.
The Shaykh:
Do not crowd us, stay up at night.
