Continuation of the answer regarding a man who was able to perform Hajj but then died without performing it: do his heirs perform Hajj on his behalf?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : I feel that I have scattered [my thoughts], and where was the topic?

The questioner : Hajj.

The Shaykh : Hajj, does one person perform Hajj for another? Ibn 'Umar said.
Be patient, I am trying to recall my thoughts now.
Does one person perform Hajj for another? He said no. And does one person fast for another? He said no. There is a hadith there that may be confusing to some, which is
'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: If anyone dies in a state (that he had to complete) some fasts, his heir must fast on his behalf. من مات وعليه صيام صام عنه وليه
Sahih Muslim 1147
We said this was narrated by 'Aishah and Ibn 'Abbas, and they interpreted this fasting that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the deceased's guardian to fast on his behalf as the fasting of a vow.
Do not ask yourselves and do not say where does this come from? The hadith is general, so we say the narrator knows his narration better than others, and on that basis, measure [your understanding] and you will be at ease in understanding many texts if you keep [this in mind], yes?
Ibrahim Shuqara: Measure and you will be at ease.

The Shaykh : Yes?
Ibrahim Shuqara: Measure and you will be at ease.

The Shaykh : You will be at ease.
Ibrahim Shuqara: It is not "you will be at ease" [plural], our Shaykh.

The Shaykh : You will be at ease?
Ibrahim Shuqara: It is not "you will be at ease" [plural], it is "you will be at ease" [singular].

The Shaykh : No, I say "you will be at ease" [singular], measure and you will be at ease, yes, the answer to the condition means yes, but if I ask you linguistically, is it permissible or not?
Ibrahim Shuqara: Linguistically?

The Shaykh : Yes.
Ibrahim Shuqara: I don't think so.

The Shaykh : With the definite article, yes, it is permissible.
Ibrahim Shuqara: I don't think so, my Shaykh, the answer to the request.

The Shaykh : Yes, it is in the jussive mood, it is in the jussive mood, but they have a rule that the jussive sometimes retains the letter nun.
Ibrahim Shuqara: I don't know this, by Allah, I don't know.

The Shaykh : I reviewed, I reviewed this.
Ibrahim Shuqara: Okay, your command, later.

The Shaykh : Please go ahead.

The questioner : If, no, no, if you please, if you please.

The Shaykh : Please proceed.
Another questioner: Please, you go ahead.
Another questioner: A simple inquiry, but about the same topic, about the same topic.

The questioner : The same topic.
Another questioner: His saying, Exalted is He:
And that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives وأن ليس للإنسان إلا ما سعى
[An-Najm 53:39]


The questioner :
and that man has nothing but what he strives for وأن ليس
.
Another questioner:
And that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives وأن ليس للإنسان إلا ما سعى
[An-Najm 53:39]
Can it not be said that the son or daughter is from the effort and toil of their father? Can it not be considered that the son is from the effort and earnings [of the father]?

The Shaykh : No, I don't think it can be said, and I think the first to object is you, so ask yourself, is it possible? Say it is possible.

The questioner : It is possible.

The Shaykh : Look, what will come to you now...

The questioner : You stay firm, my son.
Another questioner: No, just an inquiry...

The Shaykh : No problem.

The questioner : Okay, our Shaykh, may Allah preserve you.

The Shaykh : Okay, as you wish.

The questioner : Meaning... in the questions.

The Shaykh : Please, what do you have, what do you want to say?

The questioner : No, I am finishing, we are done, but I mean.

The Shaykh : Please proceed.

The questioner : Okay, let us ask here.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : There is still time.

The questioner : ... .

The questioner : Shaykh, on the same question.

The questioner : The same question.

The Shaykh : Please, but it should not be like that question, let the professor [ask] later, he, we cut off.
