Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: My father performed Hajj some time ago, and his mother has passed away without having performed Hajj. He now wants to perform Hajj, so which is better: that he perform Hajj for himself, or that he perform Hajj for his mother who passed away without having performed Hajj?
Answer:
If he has not performed the obligatory Hajj, he must perform the obligatory Hajj for himself first. If he has already performed the obligatory Hajj, he performs Hajj for his mother who did not perform it.
