The ruling on stoning the pillars during the days of Tashriq before the sun reaches its zenith

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: I performed Hajj alone twice, and I stone the pillars on the last day before the sun reaches its zenith, because I consider the tenth day to be one of the days of Mina about which Allah said:
Then whoever hastens [his departure] in two days - there is no sin upon himفَمَن تَعَجَّلَ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ فَلَا إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:203]
.

The Shaykh:
Stoning on the tenth day begins from the middle of the night of that day. So if one stones after the middle of the night, or after the sun rises, or after the midday prayer, or after the afternoon prayer, or even after the sunset prayer, that is permissible.
As for the remaining days of Tashriq, the eleventh and twelfth for those who hasten, and the thirteenth for those who delay, it is not permissible to stone, and it does not suffice, except after the sun reaches its zenith. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not stone except after the sun reached its zenith, and he said, "Take from me your rituals." Also, because the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) would wait for the sun to reach its zenith and then go to stone. If stoning before the zenith had been permissible on the days of Tashriq, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would have clarified it for his Ummah, because he clarified for them the dispensations that were permissible for them, and there is no report that he granted them a dispensation to stone before the zenith. Yes.

The questioner:
He says:

The Shaykh:
Upon the one who did that, he must repent to Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and he must slaughter a fidyah (ransom payment) for this stoning; because it occurred at a time when it was not valid, so it is not valid. Yes.
