In his dream, Hazrat Ibraheem saw that he was sacrificing his son Hazrat Ismaiel (AS) who was a young boy of about eleven years of age. He told his son about his dream. The young boy replied that he should do according to the command of Allah Karim. Hazrat Abraham (AS) took Hazrat Ismaieel (AS) to the valley of Mina to sacrifice him. At three places Satan came to Hazrat Abraham (AS) to persuade him not to sacrifice his son. Each time Hazrat Abraham (AS) threw stones at him to ward him off. The Muslims throw stones at the symbols of Satan at three places. It is an essential ritual of Hajj.

Stones are stiff because they are solids. Solids have definite shape and volume meaning that they cannot be easily made to change their form resulting in them being "stiff".
