The questioner : A woman became separated from her mahram at the jamarat and was unable to perform the stoning. She appointed a man she did not know to stone on her behalf. What is the ruling in this case?
The Shaykh : If the man is trustworthy, there is nothing wrong with her appointing someone to stone on her behalf, because in this situation she is unable to do so herself. However, if she had delayed the stoning until she found her mahram and he took her so that she could stone with her own hand, that would have been better. Yes.
