Stoning the Pillars on Behalf of Another and Staying Overnight in Mina
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Does stoning the pillars on behalf of a person exempt that person from staying overnight in Mina? And what is the ruling on the collective recitation of the talbiyah?
Answer:
Staying overnight in Mina is not for the sake of stoning the pillars; this is an independent act of worship, and stoning the pillars is another act of worship. So it is not sufficient that he stones the pillars in place of staying overnight in Mina; this is not sufficient. He must stay overnight in Mina if it is feasible, because this is one of the rites of Hajj and an obligatory duty of Hajj. And he stones the pillars at the time of stoning, which is another act of worship. Yes.
