You want to configure a stub area for an area that has an ASBR to connect it to an external network. This area already sends AS External LSAs to the backbone area and doesn need to receive them from the backbone.
Configure the area as an NSSA. Include this configuration on each router in the NSSA area.
[edit protocols ospf] aviva@RouterJ# set area 0.0.0.3 nssa
The configuration for NSSA is similar to that for stub areas. Include the nssa statement when configuring each area. Once you commit the configuration, you can see that the router is in an NSSA:
aviva@RouterJ> show ospf interface fe-0/0/1.0 detail Interface State Area DR ID BDR ID Nbrs fe-0/0/1.0 BDR 0.0.0.3 192.168.16.1 192.168.17.1 1 Type: LAN, Address: 10.0.8.1, Mask: 255.255.255.240, MTU: 1500, Cost: 1 DR addr: 10.0.8.2, BDR addr: 10.0.8.1, Adj count: 1, Priority: 128 Hello: 10, Dead: 40, ReXmit: 5, Stub NSSA Auth type: None
Before you configure the stub area, the OSPF link-state database contains two Type 5 (AS External) LSAs for the external routes that are coming from the ASBR, which is RouterE (192.168.15.1):

With the NSSA configured, these Type 5 routes are injected into the area as Type 7 (NSSA) LSAs:

The output shows that the Type 7 NSSAs still originate from the ASBR, RouterE (192.168.15.1).
As with stub areas, you can configure the ABR in the NSSA to not flood Type 3 (Network Summary) LSAs to the routers in the stub area:
[edit protocols ospf] aviva@RouterJ# set area 0.0.0.3 nssa no-summaries
Looking at a router in Area 0.0.0.3, where before its link-state database would have contained Type 3 (Summary) LSAs:
