The questioner : You said: I was among those who left early, so my flight was scheduled for the twelfth day at six in the evening. I was afraid of running out of time, especially with the crowds, so I appointed my uncle to perform the stoning on my behalf on the twelfth of Dhul-Hijjah. I left at three in the morning on the eleventh of Dhul-Hijjah. I appointed him to stone the pillars for me at twelve noon, and I would perform the Tawaf al-Ifadah afterwards. I left Mecca around one in the afternoon on the twelfth day. Is there anything required of me in this? I ask for your guidance.
The Shaykh : She missed only one night of the nights of Mina. There is no blood sacrifice required for missing one night of Mina. However, Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him) said: one should give charity, meaning: if one gives charity of five dirhams, ten riyals, or the like, that is sufficient. But the problem is that she appointed someone to stone the pillars on her behalf on the eleventh, even though it appears she was capable of stoning them herself. If that is the case, meaning she was capable of stoning them herself but appointed someone to do it for her, then she made a mistake. It is obligatory upon her, according to the scholars, to pay a fidyah (ransom payment) by slaughtering an animal in Mecca for leaving the obligatory stoning, and distributing it to the poor in Mecca, whether she went herself or appointed someone to do it in Mecca. If she was unable and could not do it, then she owes nothing. Yes.

The Shaykh : As for the twelfth day, appointing someone may be a necessity, because those who leave early on the twelfth day will find great hardship and severe crowds. It is not possible for a woman to stone the pillars on the twelfth day. So if she appoints someone, there is no harm.
