A man died during Hajj and did not perform the Tawaf of Ifadah; is it permissible to complete it on his behalf?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: A man died during Hajj and did not perform the Tawaf of Ifadah. Is it permissible to complete it on his behalf?

Answer:
The one whose camel was cut off by the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) while he was standing at 'Arafah was ordered by the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) to do so. He held back his ihram garments, and he was not forbidden from covering his head or touching perfume, and he was not ordered to complete the rites on his behalf. It was said that he will be raised on the Day of Resurrection while reciting the talbiyah. So do not complete it on his behalf; he remains in his state of ihram until Allah raises him on the Day of Resurrection. Yes. Honorable Shaykh, and excellence. And the implication of the evidence is this, but some jurists say that someone may act on his behalf and make up the missed acts for him, and Allah knows best. Yes.
