Appointing someone to stone on behalf of the sick Person, the Woman and the Child

Question :

What is the ruling on appointing someone to stone on behalf of the sick person, the woman and the child?

Answer:

There is no harm in appointing someone to stone on behalf of the sick person, and the woman who is not able, like the pregnant woman, the heavy woman and the weak woman who cannot stone the pillars. There is no harm in appointing someone to throw stones for them. Concerning the strong and active woman, she must throw the stones for herself. Whoever is not able to do it during the day after midday, he may throw the stones at night. Whoever is not able to throw the stones on the day of the 'Eid (the 10th of Thul-Hijjah), he may throw them that night, which is the 11th night on the day of the 'Eid. Whoever is not able to throw on the 11th day, he may throw on that night, which is the 12th night. Whoever is not able to throw on the 12th day or he missed throwing after midday, he may throw on that night, which is the 13th night, and the stoning does not end until the coming of Fajr time (on the morning of the 13th of Thul-Hijjah). In reference to the day, the person may not stone the pillars until after midday during the days of Tashree.
