The Sunnah in the Order of the Acts of the Day of Sacrifice
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: What is the best regarding the acts of the Day of Sacrifice, and is it permissible to advance or delay them?
Answer: The Sunnah on the Day of Sacrifice is to stone the pillars, starting with the stoning of the Jamarat al-Aqabah, which is the one closest to Makkah, and to stone it with seven pebbles, each pebble individually, saying takbir with each pebble. Then he slaughters his sacrificial animal if he has one, then he shaves his head or shortens his hair, and shaving is better.
Then he performs tawaf and sa'y if he has sa'y to perform. This is the best, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did, for he stoned, then slaughtered, then shaved, then went to Makkah and performed tawaf, peace and blessings be upon him. This order is the best: stoning, then slaughtering, then shaving or shortening, then tawaf and sa’y, if he has sa’y to perform.
If he advances some of them over others, there is no blame on him, or if he slaughters before he stones, or if he departs from Muzdalifah before he stones, or if he shaves before he stones, or if he shaves before he slaughters, all of this has no blame. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about one who advanced or delayed, and he said:Sunan Abi Dawud 2015Sahih (Al-Albani).

No harm will come; no harm will come
