سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ الصَّرُورَةِ يَحُجُّ عَنِ الْمَيِّتِ قَالَ نَعَمْ إِذَا لَمْ يَجِدِ الصَّرُورَةُ مَا يَحُجُّ بِهِ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَا يَحُجُّ بِهِ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ فَلَيْسَ يُجْزِئُ عَنْهُ حَتَّى يَحُجَّ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَ هِيَ تُجْزِئُ عَنِ الْمَيِّتِ إِنْ كَانَ لِلصَّرُورَةِ مَالٌ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Sa’ad Bin abu Khalaf who said, ‘I asked Abu Al-Hassan Musa<sup>asws</sup> about the <span class="iTxt">Saroura</span> man (not having had performed Hajj), performing Hajj on behalf of the deceased. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes. When the <span class="iTxt">Saroura</span> does not find what he can perform Hajj with for himself. So if there was for him what he can perform Hajj with for himself, so he would not be suffice from it until he performs Hajj from his own wealth, and it would be sufficient on behalf of the deceased, whether there happened to be any wealth for the <span class="iTxt">Saroura</span>, or if there did not happen to be any wealth for him’.
