The ruling on appointing someone to stone the Pillars because of overcrowding and other reasons

Question :

Is it permissible for a woman to appoint someone to stone the pillars for her due to fear of the crowding while her Hajj is an obligatory Hajj, or does she have to stone the pillars for herself?

Answer:

It is permissible for the woman to appoint someone to throw for her when there is crowding during stoning the pillars, even if her Hajj is the obligatory Hajj. This may be due to her illness or weakness, and to protect her pregnancy if she is pregnant, and to protect her honor and dignity so that her honor is not violated.

Question :

A woman performed Hajj and carried out all of its rites except for stoning the pillars. She appointed someone to stone them on her behalf because she had a small infant with her. Yet, this Hajj was her obligatory Hajj. So, what is the ruling on that? Please give us a ruling, and may Allâh reward you.

Answer:

There is no sin on her for that, and the stoning of the appointed person suffices her due to the great danger for women during crowding when stoning the pillars, let alone for those who have infants with them.
