I have a question for anyone who's familiar with the rites of Hajj.
I was reading an ebook and came across the following paragraph. The part I have a doubt about has been bolded:

I've read numerous books and watched video lectures, but no where did anyone mention anything about combining the stoning by first stoning for the 12th and then for the 13th all on the same day. Throwing double the amount of pebbles. Is this even correct?

Each day you are to stone each of the three pillars, using seven pebbles for each pillar, as you did previously with the Jamrat-ul-‘Aqabah. You must first start with the stoning of the “small pillar”, then the “middle pillar” and lastly, the “big pillar.”
You perform these stonings on all three days at Minaa; the 11th, 12th, and 13th of Dhul-Hijjah. These days are known as Ayaam at-Tashreeq (The Days of Drying).
When these days are over, the rites of Hajj are now completed, and you may return home to your family. Some people wish to leave early and travel home from the Hajj (a day early). In this regard, Allaah has said:
“Remember Allaah during the appointed days (i.e. Ayaam at-Tashreeq) and
whoever hastens to leave in two days, there is no sin on him. And whoever
remains (until the 13th of Dhul-Hijjah), there is no sin on him, providing that his intention was to be dutiful to Allaah (and to do good).” [Surah Al-Baqarah: 203]
So it is permissible to leave on the 12th of Dhul-Hijjah, after the second day at Minaa, by combining the stoning of the pillars of the second and third days into one day (i.e. the stoning of the 12th and 13th of Dhul-Hijjah are to be both performed on the same day, the 12th of Dhul-Hijjah, the second day at Minaa).
This is accomplished by going out on the second day of stoning (the 12th of Dhul Hijjah) and throwing seven pebbles at the small pillar for the second day then throwing seven additional pebbles at the same (small) pillar for the third day. You repeat this same process for the following two pillars – the middle and the last Jamraat. Throw seven pebbles first for the second day, then seven more pebbles for the third and final day (in one day).
Hence, it is permissible for the people to remain at Minaa for three days, or for those who wish to hurry, two days. Those leaving on the second day, however, must combine the second and third days of the Stoning of Jamrat on one day, which is the second day. Then, they can travel back to their homelands.
I've read numerous books and watched video lectures, but no where did anyone mention anything about combining the stoning by first stoning for the 12th and then for the 13th all on the same day. Throwing double the amount of pebbles. Is this even correct?
