The Hajj of the Two Young Girls with Their Parents

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: I have two daughters, one is three years old and the other is two. My wife and I are performing the obligatory Hajj as ifrad. Do the two girls have a valid Hajj, in accordance with the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) to the one who asked him:
Yes, and you have reward?نعم ولك أجر؟


The Shaykh:
If you entered the state of ihram on their behalf, or their mother entered the state of ihram on their behalf, there is no harm.

The questioner:
O Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
It has the ruling of a voluntary act, and you receive reward. You perform tawaf with them, fast on their behalf, and throw the pebbles on their behalf. If you did not intend anything on their behalf, then you have nothing. Yes.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you. In the continuation of his question, he asks: Do the pillars of Hajj and its obligations apply to them? Knowing that the basis of ihram is intention, and they do not form an intention?

The Shaykh:
And if you perform the rites on their behalf, complete them with them, complete all of them with them, up to the farewell tawaf; you bid farewell with them. Rely on Allah.
