The ruling on a pilgrim forgetting some of the pebbles

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : May Allah bless you. Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling if a pilgrim forgets some of the pebbles?

Answer : If he forgets some of the pebbles and is certain that he threw only three, for example, he takes pebbles from the place where it is his time to throw them, even if it is near the pillar, and completes his throwing. Some people used to be very cautious about the noise of pebbles around the pillars or on the path between the pillars, but there is no basis for this caution. This is because the default is that throwing is permissible with pebbles. The possibility that a pebble has been thrown before is a possibility that may be close or may be far.
And even if it was thrown with, meaning if you are certain that a person threw with this pebble and you took it and threw with it, there is nothing wrong with that. A pebble, even if it has been thrown with, does not cease to be a pebble. Yes. On this basis, if he forgets one pebble, two pebbles, or three pebbles, he takes what is under his foot and throws.
