Hajj for one who is able to ride and carry
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, I have a brother who is blind, and one of his legs is lame. Is it permissible for me to perform Hajj on his behalf, even though he is thirty years old and has not yet performed the obligatory Hajj of Islam?
Answer:
If he is able to travel, ride, and carry, he must perform the Hajj of Islam himself. If he is unable to ride or be transported on a continuous basis, then he appoints someone to perform Hajj on his behalf, such as an old man, a very elderly person, or one who is chronically ill. However, if he is able to perform Hajj, even if he has to be carried during the rituals at the sacred sites, during the tawaf, and during the sa'y, then he must perform Hajj. Yes.
