Hajj on behalf of a deceased son

Question:
Abu Majid is with us on the line, please go ahead, Abu Majid. Turn the television down, Abu Majid. Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings. And upon you peace, turn the television down a bit, there is some interference on the frequency now, turn the television down, please. In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy. I have a deceased son who was twenty-one years old and was studying in high school. Is it obligatory for us to perform Hajj on his behalf? Thank you.

Answer:
If he had money and was of legal age, having reached maturity and possessing wealth, then Hajj is performed on his behalf from his money. And if you perform it on his behalf as a voluntary act from your own side, that suffices, if Allah wills. However, if he did not have money and you perform it on his behalf as a voluntary act, that is a good thing and will benefit him, by the permission of Allah. Yes.
