Chapter on Throwing Pebbles on Behalf of the Sick and Children
وَ سَأَلَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلْمَرِيضِ يُرْمَى عَنْهُ اَلْجِمَارُ قَالَ «نَعَمْ يُحْمَلْ إِلَى اَلْجَمْرَةِ وَ يُرْمَى عَنْهُ» قُلْتُ لاَ يُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «يُتْرَكُ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ وَ يُرْمَى عَنْهُ ».
Ishaq ibn Ammar asked Abu Al-Hasan Musa عليه السلام about a sick person: Can the stoning of the Jamarat be performed on his behalf? Imam عليه السلام replied: "Yes, he should be carried to the Jamarat, and the stoning should be done on his behalf." I said: "What if he is unable to be carried?" Imam عليه السلام replied: "He may remain in his residence, and the stoning should be performed on his behalf."
