The Shaykh : And upon you be peace.
The questioner : This man says: He has a debt and cannot afford Hajj. But I might take on a Hajj on behalf of someone else to perform it for them?
The Shaykh : There is nothing wrong with this, because taking on a Hajj on behalf of someone else does not harm him in any way. In fact, he might be given an amount of money greater than what he spends, in which case he would have a surplus. Yes.
