Is it permissible for women to stone the Jamarāt after the crowds have subsided, or was the stoning by their male relatives on their behalf during the crowds sufficient?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the crowd is unavoidable, as on the twelfth day for those who wish to hasten and cannot delay, then there is no harm for a woman to delegate someone else to perform the stoning of the Jamarat. Indeed, this becomes obligatory, because her entering such a crowd poses a danger to her. As for other days, she can delay the stoning until late at night when it becomes easy.
