وَ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْحُصَيْنِيُّ أَنَّ ابْنَ عَمِّي أَوْصَى أَنْ يُحَجَّ عَنْهُ بِخَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ دِينَاراً فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ فَلَيْسَ يَكْفِي فَمَا تَأْمُرُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَكَتَبَ يَجْعَلُ حَجَّتَيْنِ فِي حَجَّةٍ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَالِمٌ بِذَلِكَ .


Translation

Ibrahim said, ‘And Ali Bin Muhammad Al-Husayni wrote to him<sup>asws</sup> that, ‘A cousin of mine bequeathed that Hajj be performed on his behalf with twenty five Dinars during every year, but it does not suffice, so what are your<sup>asws</sup> orders regarding that?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> wrote: ‘He should make (the expenditure of) two Hajjs to be regarding one Hajj (to be sufficient), Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Willing. He<sup>azwj</sup> is more Knowing with that’.
