He stands at the very spot where the Prophet ﷺ stood, with the revered Kaaba to his left and Mina to his right. Facing the Jamrah, he pelts it with seven pebbles, uttering the takbīr each time—just as Ibn Masʿūd (may Allah be pleased with him) stood there and swore that this is the station of the one upon whom Sūrat al-Baqarah was revealed ﷺ.

Points derived from the ḥadith:
1- The legitimacy of stoning Jamrat al-ʿAqabah (1) alone on the Day of Sacrifice.
2- It must be pelted with seven pebbles, one after another; hurling them all at once does not suffice, as the ḥadith indicates.
3- According to the consensus of the scholars it may be stoned from any direction, though the preferable manner is to keep the Kaaba on one’s left, Mina on one’s right, and face the Jamrah.
4- This is precisely the stance of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Ibn Masʿūd cited Sūrat al-Baqarah because it contains many rulings related to ḥajj.
5- It is permissible to ascribe the surah to “al-Baqarah,” contrary to those who object to that phrasing; Ibn Masʿūd was among the most knowledgeable of the Qur’an.
6- These sites are to be called “Jamrahs,” not—as some ignorant laypeople say—the “big devil” or the “small devil.” Such language is forbidden, for these are sacred rites that Allah has commanded us to stone while remembering Him there. Even worse are the obscene epithets some people hurl at them and the irreverent behavior they display—such as pelting with large stones, lead pellets, or shoes. All of this is unlawful, excessive, and at odds with the Sharīʿah, for it combines extremism and harshness while contradicting the guidance of the Lawgiver.
