The answer

It is permissible to stone the Jamarat before noon (zawwal) out of necessity, such as fearing severe and certain or highly probable crowding. However, if the crowding is not severe, stoning before noon is not sufficient, and it must be done after noon. The majority of scholars hold that stoning before noon is not sufficient, except on the day of nafr according to the Hanafis. Whoever stones before noon without necessity and does not repeat the stoning, must sacrifice a sheep.
