The ruling on performing Hajj on behalf of one's father before performing Hajj for oneself

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for me to perform Hajj on behalf of my deceased father before I perform Hajj for myself?

Answer:
If you have already performed the obligatory Hajj for yourself, there is nothing wrong with performing Hajj on behalf of your father. However, if you have not yet performed the obligatory Hajj for yourself, you must begin with yourself before performing Hajj for anyone else. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
perform hajj on your own behalf, then perform it on behalf of Shubrumah.حج عن نفسك ثم حج عن شبرمة
Sunan Abi Dawud 1811Sahih (Al-Albani)
. Yes.
