Pebbles for Al-Jamarat, the Quantity of Pebbles and the Place to Collect Them

علي بن إبراهيم، عن أبيه، عن ابن أبي عمير، عن جميل، عن زرارة، عن أبي عبدالله عليه السلام قال: حصى الجمار إن أخذته من الحرم أجرأك وإن أخذته من غير الحرم لم يجزئك، قال: وقال: لا ترمي الجمار إلا بالحصى.
5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil ibn Darraj who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ‘If you pick up pebbles for al-Jamar from al-Haram (the sacred area), it is sufficient; but if you take them from non-al-Haram (the sacred area) it is not sufficient.’ He (the Imam) has said, ‘You must not throw on al-Jamar anything other than pebbles.’”
