قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنْسَانٌ هَلَكَ وَ لَمْ يَحُجَّ وَ لَمْ يُوصِ بِالْحَجِّ فَأَحَجَّ عَنْهُ بَعْضُ أَهْلِهِ رَجُلًا أَوِ امْرَأَةً هَلْ يُجْزِئُ ذَلِكَ وَ يَكُونُ قَضَاءً عَنْهُ وَ يَكُونُ الْحَجُّ لِمَنْ حَجَّ وَ يُؤْجَرُ مَنْ أَحَجَّ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ إِنْ كَانَ الْحَاجُّ غَيْرَ صَرُورَةٍ أَجْزَأَ عَنْهُمَا جَمِيعاً وَ أُجِرَ الَّذِي أَحَجَّهُ .
Translation
From him, from Safwan, from Hakam Bin Hukeym who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A person died and had not performed Hajj and did not bequeath with the Hajj to be performed. So one of his family members, a man or a woman performs Hajj on his behalf. Would that suffice him, and become a payback (Qazaa) from it, and the Hajj would happen to be for the one who performed Hajj and paid for the one to perform the Hajj on his behalf?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If the pilgrim was not <span class="iTxt">Saroura</span> (not having had performed Hajj), it would suffice from both of them together, and the Recompense would be for the one who performed his Hajj’.
