Performing Hajj on behalf of a father who performed Hajj without knowledge of the correct method

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: My father passed away eight years ago, and he had performed Hajj several times, but I know that he was not aware of the correct method of Hajj. So, is it obligatory for me to perform Hajj on his behalf?

Answer:
If he performed Hajj with the Muslims and did what the Muslims do, that suffices him, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
