Question:
Shaykh, may Allah bless you. Regarding the fact that I performed Hajj before the change twenty years ago, and then two years ago I performed Hajj on behalf of my mother, and last year I performed a Hajj with some people using money for myself, my mother, and my father. Is this permissible or not? Is this thing not permissible? Thirdly, I have a matter: if I give charity to any eligible person, I say, "This is from them, may Allah make it for me and my father," or "for me personally," or "for my father." What is the best thing for me to do regarding charity? Is it the best thing for my father? Thank you.
Answer:
Look, my brother, a Hajj does not suffice for more than one person; no more than one person shares in it. Even if it is a voluntary Hajj for one person and a voluntary 'Umrah for another, no people share in it. As for charity, its scope is broad. You give charity for yourself, for your parents, for your relatives, and for any Muslim you wish. There is no harm in sharing in charity. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you and bless you.
