Question:
Or, Professor, Shaykh, if someone who has wealth does not perform Hajj on his own behalf, he said: Is that so? Did he not say: Does he perform it on his own behalf, or on behalf of the one about whom he was informed?
Answer:
It is on his own behalf; the Hajj is on his own behalf. Yes, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Perform Hajj on your own behalf. So he says: The Hajj is on his own behalf, not on behalf of the one for whom he intended it. Yes.
