Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a Muslim to perform Hajj on behalf of another Muslim due to his illness and inability, where the one performing is a resident of the Kingdom and the one for whom it is performed is a resident of another country, and this is done by contacting him and informing him?
Answer:
The person in the other country is unable to perform Hajj physically due to a permanent inability, so there is no harm, whether he is in the Kingdom or outside the Kingdom. However, as the questioner mentioned, he contacts him and obtains his permission and authorization. Yes.
