Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence! The questioner, Umm Ahmad, asks: Is it permissible for a wife to appoint her husband to stone the Jamrat al-Aqabah? And does she have to offer a sacrificial animal for this, given the crowds, and she has children with her at that time?

Answer:
Yes, if she is unable, she may appoint her husband, or someone else. She should appoint a trustworthy person to stone on her behalf if she is weak and cannot handle the crowds, or is advanced in age and cannot manage, or has children whom she cannot leave. She may appoint her husband if he is trustworthy, or another trustworthy person to stone on her behalf, and there is no blame on her.
