Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible to perform the stoning of the pillars before the sun reaches its zenith on the eleventh and twelfth days? And if someone stoned and then comes to ask, is he ordered to repeat it?
The Shaykh : It is not permissible to perform the stoning of the pillars on the eleventh and twelfth days before the sun reaches its zenith. If someone stoned and comes to ask, we say: repeat the stoning, because your stoning was before its time. It is like one who prays the prayer before its time; he must repeat the prayer. For example, if one prays the midday prayer before the sun reaches its zenith and comes to ask, we say: you must repeat the midday prayer, because the prayer before its time is not valid, and the stoning before its time is not valid. Therefore, he must repeat it. If the time for stoning has passed, meaning he did not ask until after the days of Tashreeq had ended, we say: you are now required to slaughter a sacrificial animal in Makkah and distribute it to the poor, because you left an obligatory duty of Hajj. Yes.
