What is preferable for a woman regarding the stoning of the pillars

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
There are some questions, Your Eminence, that I also hope you will be kind enough to answer regarding Hajj: What is preferable for a woman, to appoint someone to perform the stoning on her behalf during the day if she is unable to perform it herself, or to perform it herself at night?
Answer: What appears to be the case, and Allah knows best, is that appointing someone is preferable; because performing the stoning during the day is better in every situation; and because some congestion may occur at night if people become accustomed to performing the stoning at night, which may also make the matter difficult. Therefore, appointing someone so that she can perform the act of worship at its best time is preferable, if Allah wills; for example, if she is unable to enter with the people to perform the stoning, or if she is pregnant and fears for her pregnancy, or for other reasons, appointing someone is preferable. Yes.
