12th ZilHijj (Fifth Day of Hajj)

If one has not yet done the immolation (the animal sacrifice) or Tawaf-e-Ifada (Ziarat) he should fulfill these rites today before sunset.
The principle rite of this day is the Rami of all three stones in the same manner as on 11th ZilHijj. The Rami of 12th ZilHijj is also carried out after mid-day and upto a little before early Morning prayer the next day.
The stoning of the pillars commemorates the Prophet Ibrahim`s gesture when he hurled stones on Satan on three occasions at these spots. It symbolizes the commitment of the pilgrims to the principle of resisting future temptations. It is regarded as the duty by all four major theological schools of Islam.
After the Rami on 12th ZilHijj the pilgrims are at liberty either to stay in Mina or to return to Mak`kah. If they do not intend to stay in Mina any more after the Rami on 12th ZilHijj, they must leave before the early morning prayer time on 13th ZilHijj. If the 13th ZilHijj dawned while the pilgrims are in Mina then Rami on 13th become obligatory and if one left without performing on this Rami, he shall have to offer animal sacrifice (Dum).

Al Humdu Lillah, all the rites of Hajj has been completed with the grace of God and his blessings.
