حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ خَثْعَمَ، عَامَ حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ، قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ فَرِيضَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ فِي الْحَجِّ أَدْرَكَتْ أَبِي شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا، لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَسْتَوِيَ عَلَى الرَّاحِلَةِ فَهَلْ يَقْضِي عَنْهُ أَنْ أَحُجَّ عَنْهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ نَعَمْ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Musa ibn Ismail narrated to us; Abd al-Aziz ibn Abi Salama narrated to us; Ibn Shihab narrated to us, from Sulayman ibn Yasar, from Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), who said: A woman from Khatham came in the year of the Farewell Hajj and said: Messenger of Allah, the obligation of Hajj that Allah laid upon His servants has become due for my father, but he is very old and cannot sit upright on his mount. Will it fulfill the obligation for him if I perform Hajj on his behalf? He said: Yes.
