قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ أَهْلِنَا مَاتَ أَخُوهَا فَأَوْصَى بِحَجَّةٍ وَ قَدْ حَجَّتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فَقَالَتْ إِنْ صَلَحَ حَجَجْتُ أَنَا عَنْ أَخِي وَ كُنْتُ أَنَا أَحَقَّ بِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِي فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) لَا بَأْسَ بِأَنْ تَحُجَّ عَنْ أَخِيهَا وَ إِنْ كَانَ لَهَا مَالٌ فَلْتَحُجَّ مِنْ مَالِهَا فَإِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ لِأَجْرِهَا .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Abu Ayoub who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A woman of our family, a brother of hers died and bequeathed with Hajj, and the woman had performed Hajj beforehand, so she said, ‘If I am well, I shall perform Hajj on behalf of my brother, and I am more rightful with it than others’. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘There is no problem if she were to perform Hajj on behalf of her brother; and if there was wealth for her, so let her perform Hajj from her own wealth, for it would be greater for her Recompense’.
