Performing Hajj on behalf of your mother, even without her permission
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: I want to perform Hajj on behalf of my mother. Is it necessary for me to seek her permission, given that she has already performed the obligatory Hajj?
Answer: If your mother is unable to perform Hajj due to old age or an illness that is not expected to end, there is nothing wrong with performing Hajj on her behalf, even without her permission. This is based on what is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that a man sought his permission, saying: “O Messenger of Allah, my father is an old man who cannot perform Hajj or 'Umrah.” He said (peace and blessings be upon him):Jami` at-Tirmidhi 930Sahih (Darussalam). And a woman sought his permission, saying: “O Messenger of Allah, my father is an old man who cannot perform Hajj or travel. Should I perform Hajj on his behalf?” He said (peace and blessings be upon him): .
Likewise, a deceased person can have Hajj performed on his behalf, based on authentic hadiths that have been reported regarding this, and these two hadiths. And success is from Allah.
