Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, asked Abdur Rahman bin Qasim, "From where would Qasim bin Muhammad throw the pebbles at Jamrat al-Aqabah?" He replied, "From wherever it was possible."

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, was asked whether it is permissible to perform the stoning (rami) on behalf of a boy and a sick person. He replied: Yes, it is permissible, but the sick person should say the takbir in his tent at the appropriate time, and offer a sacrifice. Then, if the sick person recovers during the days of Tashreeq, he should perform the rami himself and offer a hady (sacrificial animal).

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that if a person throws pebbles or runs between Safa and Marwah without ablution, it is not obligatory for him to repeat it, but he should not do so deliberately.
