أَخْبَرَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ هُشَيْمٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِنَّ أَبِي أَدْرَكَهُ الْحَجُّ وَهُوَ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ لاَ يَثْبُتُ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ فَإِنْ شَدَدْتُهُ خَشِيتُ أَنْ يَمُوتَ أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهُ قَالَ " أَفَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَقَضَيْتَهُ أَكَانَ مُجْزِئًا ". قَالَ نَعَمْ. قَالَ " فَحُجَّ عَنْ أَبِيكَ ".
It was narrated from Abdullah bin Abbas that a man asked the Messenger of Allah: ‘The obligation of Hajj has come due while my father is an elderly man who cannot sit securely on his mount. If I tie him on, I fear he may die. May I perform Hajj on his behalf?’ He asked, ‘What do you think: if he owed a debt and you paid it for him, would that discharge it?’ The man said, ‘Yes.’ He replied, ‘Then perform Hajj on behalf of your father.’
