Authorizing the husband to perform the stoning on behalf of the need on the twelfth day

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman performed Hajj and was in a hurry, so she authorized her husband to stone the pillars on her behalf on the twelfth day out of fear of the crowd. She may have said that one of the female callers to Islam issued a fatwa to that effect. Is this fatwa valid?

Answer:
From Mina, she does not leave Mina in a hurry except after the stoning, either by herself or by her agent, after the 'Asr prayer. If it is after the 'Asr prayer, she stones either by herself or by her agent, then she leaves in a hurry, passes by the Ka'bah, and performs the farewell tawaf. She does not depart from Mina until she completes the rite of stoning after the 'Asr prayer, either by herself or by her agent. Yes.
