The ruling on throwing the pebbles on behalf of wives by delegation, despite their ability to do so

Question:
This questioner says: On the tenth of Dhu al-Hijjah, the day of the festival, the husbands threw the pebbles at the large Jamarat al-Aqabah on behalf of their wives by delegation from them, despite the wives' ability to throw, but they feared the crowd. What is the ruling on this action, especially since we are leaving from the second hour of the afternoon today heading to our country?

Answer:
It is obligatory for them to perform the throwing themselves. If they are present and see a danger, they may delegate. As for mere suspicion, they are fine, healthy, and active; that is not sufficient. But if they are present and there is fear of that, there is no harm; the excuse is real and present. As for mere suspicion, no, it is not sufficient, unless they have an ailment such as illness, old age, pregnancy, or children for whom they have no one to watch them, meaning a clear excuse. Yes.

May Allah reward you.
