And after he returned to Muzdalifah from 'Arafah, he found two elderly women who asked him to stone the Pillar of Aqabah on their behalf, and he did so. What is the ruling in that case?

The questioner : I was in Muzdalifah after returning from 'Arafah when I found two elderly women. I did not know which country they were from. They said to me: "You are young, and we want you to stone for us." They gave me the pebbles for stoning for one day, meaning only the stoning of the Pillar of Aqabah. They were two women, and they said: "Complete it for us." I did it for them as I did it for myself, as I mentioned in the first question?

The Shaykh : I do not know whether these two women were relatives he was forbidden to marry or whether they were strangers to him. The apparent context of the speech is that they were strangers and that he found them in the street.
In any case, it is not valid for him to stone on their behalf as long as they are capable of stoning themselves, because stoning, like the other rituals of Hajj, is obligatory for a person to perform himself, based on the saying of Allah the Exalted: However, given the situation that occurred, he does not commit a sin because he was ignorant. But the two women owe two expiations, which they must slaughter in Makkah and distribute to the poor people of Makkah, because the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) said: If a person leaves an obligatory act, he owes a sacrificial animal to be slaughtered in Makkah and distributed to the poor.

The questioner : May Allah bless you.
