Stoning the Aqabah Pillar from Outside the Valley Bed
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks: What is the ruling on stoning the Aqabah Pillar without being in the valley bed?
The Shaykh:
From whichever direction he throws it, it suffices. If it falls in the basin, that is enough. If it falls in the basin, it suffices, even if he throws it from any direction. All the pillars are the same.
The questioner:
He says: And if it falls in the basin and rolls out over the wall?
The Shaykh:
It does no harm. If it falls in the basin, it suffices. It must have rolled and gone out after that. If it falls in the basin, it is valid, and praise be to Allah. And if it rolls after that and goes out and falls on the ground. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you with good.
