Jamarat Pillars

Hello,

I was shocked to learn that the Jamarat Pillars were covered by a wall to "ease and speed up" the stoning of the devil. Link as proof: Google Stoning of the Devil wikipedia

I believe this is the work of Shaytan and the walls should be removed and returned to the original. Let's make this happen.

I think he means the original wall is covered by a new wall, but all the same - its fine.

Stoning the shatan at the jamaraat is symbolic, and i see no problem with the new jamaraat structures.

They were built for safety weren't they?

I think with so many people attending Hajj these days (3 million subhanAllah) the pillars on their own were a safety hazard, as the rocks which missed could hit people on the other side. I believe the walls were built to stop that happening. The intention is the same, isn't it?

Look the previous jamaraat were tiny, these new ones are bigger - this means shatan will be stretched across the whole thing, and hajj goers have a higher chance of actually hitting him now
