The questioner : In your long life, the mother bequeathed a sum of money for someone to perform Hajj on her behalf. Yes? The mother bequeathed a sum of money for someone to perform Hajj on her behalf, yes? Yes. I am saying she bequeathed a sum of money for someone to perform Hajj on her behalf. Yes. So we performed Hajj on her behalf with part of the money. Yes. And the rest is still available now. So should we perform Hajj on her behalf again, or should we spend it on another charitable work? She said, “Perform Hajj on my behalf with this money.” Yes, she bequeathed this amount which includes a Hajj. Fine, there is a matter. It became more than, meaning we paid part of it. Or should it be spent on Hajj with this money. On a Hajj. The matter is, I, a second time. He performs another one. Yes. Or is it not appropriate for another work? She did not say, she did not say one Hajj. No, she said, “Perform Hajj on my behalf.” Meaning, perform Hajj on my behalf with this money, spend it until it is exhausted. Or does it mean in two or three Hajjs? Yes. Meaning, we do not spend it on, for example, another act of righteousness.

The Shaykh : Absolutely not. As long as she said, “Perform Hajj on my behalf with this money,” then Hajj is performed on her behalf, one time after another, until it is finished. She did not specify one, or two, or three. But she said, “Perform Hajj on my behalf with this money.” Perform Hajj on my behalf with this money. So the entire understanding is in Hajj. It is all spent on Hajj, yes. May Allah bless you, may Allah reward you with good.
