The ruling on performing Hajj on behalf of one who died while not praying or who abandoned prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The listener Ahmad Abdullah from Riyadh has two questions. In the first, he asks: Is it permissible to perform Hajj on behalf of one who died while not praying?

Answer:
If it is established that he died while not praying, then Hajj is not performed on his behalf, because he is not a Muslim, and Hajj is obligatory only upon the Muslim. Yes.
