Is it جائز to stone the الجمرات at night during the days of Tashriq?

Stoning the الجمرات at night is جائز عند جمهور العلماء, particularly for those who have a valid reason for delaying. The time for stoning on each of the days of Tashriq begins after zawal and extends until fajr of the following day, عند the majority position. This means the nighttime is a valid extension of the stoning period, not a separate time.

الشيخ ابن باز ruled that nighttime stoning is جائز for those who have a valid excuse, such as illness, extreme crowding that makes daytime stoning dangerous, caring for weak or elderly family members, or other genuine hardships. He preferred daytime stoning as it follows النبي's practice but acknowledged that النبي did not explicitly prohibit nighttime stoning. The اللجنة الدائمة issued similar guidance.

الشيخ ابن عثيمين took a broader view, holding that the time for stoning extends from zawal until fajr of the next day, and stoning at any point during this window — including at night — is valid without requiring a specific excuse. He reasoned that the nighttime period between Maghrib and fajr is still part of the same day's stoning window. However, he مستحب daytime stoning when possible, as it is closer to the السنة. الفوزان similarly permitted nighttime stoning, noting that the extreme crowds of modern الحج make this a practical necessity for many الحجاج.
