Is the Hajj of the questioner and his wife valid, given that he appointed his wife to stone Jamrat Al-Aqabah and appointed one of his relatives to stone the Jamarat during the Days of Tashreeq, and he went to his home in Jeddah before performing the Tawaf Al-Ifadah and Sa'i, and what is the required fidyah for them?

If someone misses the ritual stoning without an excuse, a dam (sacrificial offering) is required. However, if they are sick or imprisoned, it is permissible for them to appoint someone to stone on their behalf. As for staying overnight in Mina, if it is missed due to an excuse such as illness, some scholars have granted a concession for this and do not consider anything obligatory. Meanwhile, others are of the view that the concession applies only to those engaged in a public interest for Muslims, and according to their opinion, a dam is required for missing the overnight stay. But if the overnight stay is missed due to laziness, a dam is required, to be slaughtered in Mecca and distributed among the poor of the Haram. If unable to do so, then fasting for ten days is required. This detailed explanation also applies to the wife, and there is no harm in delaying the circumambulation (tawaf) and the ritual running (sa'i).
