ذِكْرُ تَمْثِيلِ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ الْحَجِّ عَلَى مَنْ وَجَبَتْ عَلَيْهِ بِالدَّيْنِ إِذَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ
[Machine] A man asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ : "O Messenger of Allah, my father embraced Islam when he was old and weak. If I were to take him on a journey, I fear that I would end up causing his death. And if I don't take him, he won't be able to perform the obligations of Hajj. Should I perform Hajj on his behalf?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, "Have you ever thought if your father had a debt, would you pay it off for him?" The man replied, "Yes." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, "Then perform Hajj on his behalf."
أَنْ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَبِي دَخَلٍ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَهُوَ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ فَإِنْ أَنَا شَدَدْتُهُ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِي خَشِيتُ أَنْ أَقْتُلَهُ وَإِنْ لَمْ أَشُدَّهُ لَمْ يَثْبُتْ عَلَيْهَا أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَرَأَيْتَ لَوَ كَانَ عَلَى أَبِيكَ دَيْنٌ فَقَضَيْتَهُ عَنْهُ أَكَانَ يُجْزِئُ عَنْهُ» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَاحْجُجْ عَنْ أَبِيكَ»
