What is the ruling on one who stoned the pillars before the sun passed its zenith
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Remember. The questioner, Honorable Shaykh, says that they stoned the pillars before the sun passed its zenith. Is anything required of them?
Answer : If this was on the day of the festival, there is nothing wrong with it. No, I am not. As for if it was during the days of Tashreeq, then it is looked at: if the one who issued the ruling to them was from the recognized scholars, then nothing is required of them, but they should not do it again, because the opinion that it is permissible to stone before the sun passes its zenith during the days of Tashreeq is weak, contrary to the guidance of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He said (peace and blessings be upon him) (peace and blessings be upon him). And he did not stone during the days of Tashreeq except after the sun had passed its zenith. So the stoning is delayed until the sun passes its zenith, and from the time it passes its zenith, one stones before praying the midday prayer. If stoning before the sun passed its zenith had been permissible, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would have done it. (peace and blessings be upon him). Because stoning before the sun passes its zenith is easier for people. The time is cooler. And the time is longer. So when he did not stone himself before the sun passed its zenith, nor did he grant a dispensation for those with excuses to stone before the sun passed its zenith, it is known that it is not permissible to stone before the sun passes its zenith, because if it had been permissible, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would have clarified it, either by his action or by his words. And if it had been part of the law of Allah, Allah the Exalted would have clarified it in His Book or on the tongue of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
And it is not befitting for a person to be lenient in taking the dispensations. Rather, the religion is all ease and order, from the Book and the Sunnah.
And the person for whom it is difficult to stone immediately after the sun passes its zenith delays it to the original time. And to the night, to the dawn. And the person who wants to hasten on the twelfth day, if he is unable to delay and the crowd is difficult for him, let him appoint a proxy. The door is open, and praise be to Allah. For example, in our days now, in our current era, regarding the women who want to hasten on the twelfth day, there is no doubt that it is very difficult for them to stone immediately after the sun passes its zenith. So we tell these women: appoint a proxy to stone on behalf of each of you. So remain in your place. And when he has stoned on your behalf, you all descend to Makkah.
And some people told me that in the afternoon of the twelfth day, the stoning area is light, greater. If he delays to the afternoon, for example. And the person attends to stone, if he finds the stoning area light, that is what is desired. And if he finds it heavy and it is difficult for him to push through the crowd, he remains until it becomes light, even if the sun sets. Because this man intended to hasten and strived to hasten, but the crowd held him back. So he may stone after the sun sets and depart from Mina. Because this falls within the saying of Allah the Exalted[Al-Baqarah 2:203] but he was unable to stone before the sunset, and Allah does not burden a soul
