Hajj on behalf of deceased parents and which one to start with

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Abu Muhammad from al-Qassim, on the first call, please go ahead, Abu Muhammad. Abu Muhammad. No, only a little is coming through.

The Shaykh:
And upon you be peace.

The questioner:
Please, let us hear you. May Allah keep you in good health, Abu Muhammad. Your question. May Allah prolong your life. Please go ahead. First, my mother and my father have passed away, may Allah have mercy on them. So, does the father have the right to be prioritized, or the mother? All right, the Shaykh will answer in a moment. A moment, a moment. A moment.

The Shaykh:
If they have not performed Hajj, meaning they did not perform it in their lifetime, you begin with the one who did not perform it, and the obligation is dropped from him. However, if they have already performed Hajj, you begin with the mother first to ensure her right and to be dutiful to her, so you begin with her and perform Hajj on her behalf, then you perform Hajj on behalf of your father. Yes.
