[Machine] A man from Khaitham came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, my father has embraced Islam, but he is an elderly man who cannot ride a camel. The obligation of Hajj (pilgrimage) is prescribed on him, so should I perform Hajj on his behalf?" The Prophet ﷺ asked, "Are you his eldest son?" He replied, "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ then asked, "What if your father had a debt, and you paid it off, would that suffice?" He answered, "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ then advised, "Then perform Hajj on his behalf." There was a difference of opinion regarding this matter, and it was resolved by Mansur. Jareer ibn Abd al-Hamid narrated the incident in this manner.

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خَثْعَمٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبِي أَدْرَكَ الْإِسْلَامَ وَهُوَ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ رُكُوبَ الرَّحْلِ وَالْحَجُّ مَكْتُوبٌ عَلَيْهِ أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهُ قَالَ أَنْتَ أَكْبَرُ وَلَدِهِ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ كَانَ عَلَى أَبِيكَ دَيْنٌ فَقَضَيْتَهُ أَكَانَ ذَلِكَ يجْزِئُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاحْجُجْ عَنْهُ اخْتُلِفَ فِي هَذَا عَلَى مَنْصُورٍ فَرَوَاهُ جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ هَكَذَا

a man asked the Prophet "The command of ) Hajj has come while my father is an old man and cannot sit firmly in his saddle; if I tie him (to the saddle) I fear that he will die. Can I perform Hajj on his behalf?" He said: "don't you think that if your father owed a debt and you paid it off, that would be good enough?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Then perform Hajj on behalf of your father. " (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2640)
