Is the intention to "stone the Minor Jamrah" considered a mistake if the directional sign does not include the word "Aqaba"?
We advise you to turn away from waswasah (whispering doubts/obsessive thoughts), as articulating the intention () for the ramy (stoning) of the (stone pillars) is not legislated and was not narrated from the Prophet, peace be upon him, that he articulated the intention. Your intention in your heart to stone the jamarah is sufficient for you. If you stone the jamarah with seven pebbles intending to stone it, that is sufficient for you. Your naming the jamarah by a name other than its own, or your adding the word "Aqaba," does not affect it. The Jamarat al-Aqaba is the largest jamarah, and it is the last of the jamarat to be stoned during the Days of Tashreeq; no other jamarah is stoned on the Day of Nahr.
