[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said to him, "Indeed, my sister made a vow to perform Hajj but she passed away." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "What if she had a debt, would you not fulfill it for her?" He replied, "Yes, I would." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "So fulfill Allah's right, for He is the most deserving of fulfilling."
