سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَمُوتُ وَ يُوصِي بِحَجَّةٍ فَيُعْطَى رَجُلٌ دَرَاهِمَ يَحُجُّ بِهَا عَنْهُ فَيَمُوتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَحُجَّ ثُمَّ أُعْطِيَ الدَّرَاهِمَ غَيْرُهُ قَالَ إِنْ مَاتَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ أَوْ بِمَكَّةَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ مَنَاسِكَهُ فَإِنَّهُ يُجْزِئُ عَنِ الْأَوَّلِ قُلْتُ فَإِنِ ابْتُلِيَ بِشَيْءٍ يُفْسِدُ عَلَيْهِ حَجَّهُ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَجُّ مِنْ قَابِلٍ أَ يُجْزِئُ عَنِ الْأَوَّلِ قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ لِأَنَّ الْأَجِيرَ ضَامِنٌ لِلْحَجِّ قَالَ نَعَمْ .
Translation
Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Is’haq Bin Ammar who said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about the man who dies and bequeath with a Hajj. So Dirhams are given to a man to perform Hajj with on his behalf, but he dies before he performs Hajj. Then the Dirhams are given to someone else. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If he died in the way, or in Makkah before he had fulfilled his rituals, so it would suffice from the first one’. I said, ‘Supposing he is involved with something which spoils his Hajj upon him until the Hajj of the next year comes to be (Obligatory) upon him, would it suffice him from the first one?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes’. I said, ‘Is it because the hired one is responsible for the Hajj?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes’.
