Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: May Allah preserve you, a friend of mine has performed Hajj three times and wishes to perform Hajj but is unable to do so. He says: I wish to perform Hajj on behalf of another person. Is that permissible?
The Shaykh:
Okay.
The questioner:
He says: He previously performed Hajj three times and wishes to perform Hajj on behalf of another person. What is the ruling in his case?
The Shaykh:
No, if he has already performed Hajj for himself, it is not permissible for him to act as a substitute for someone else a second time. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard a man saying, “I am performing Hajj on behalf of Shubrumah,” so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Who is Shubrumah?” He said, “A brother of mine, or he said, a relative of mine, who has died.” He said:Sunan Abi Dawud 1811Sahih (Al-Albani) Yes

perform hajj on your own behalf, then perform it on behalf of Shubrumah.
