The questioner : Is it permissible for a man to perform Hajj on behalf of another person who is able to perform Hajj himself?
The Shaykh : If the question is as stated, I fear there may be more to it than meets the eye! If the question is as stated, the answer is: No; because it is among the principles and rules of the Shari'ah[An-Najm 53:39], but perhaps there is more to it than meets the eye!
The questioner : It is as stated, O Shaykh, the question — if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : Then that is the answer.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And beware of that.
