If the Stones do not fall into the Basin

Question :

A Hajj pilgrim stones the pillar of Al-'Aqabah from the direction of the cast, but his stone did not fall into the basin. So, what should he do since he is now in the 13th day (of Thul-Hijjah)? Is he required to repeat the stoning during the days of At-Tashreeq?

Answer:

He is not required to repeat the stoning entirely. He is only required to repeat the throwing that he did not do properly. Based on this, he repeats stoning the pillar of Al-'Aqabah only and he stones it properly. The stoning that he did from the eastern side does not suffice him, because in this case the stones will not fall into the basin, which is the place of the stoning. Therefore, if he stones from the bridge from the eastern side, that will suffice him, because the stones will fall into the basin.
