Question:
We return at the beginning of this episode to the letter from our listener Ali Hamud Sa'id al-Badi from the Sultanate of Oman. Our brother Ali presented some of his questions in a previous episode, and in this episode he asks some questions. He says in the first question: If a person says, "If Allah wills, I will go for Hajj this year," and then death overtakes him before the season of Hajj, what must his relatives do? Are they required to perform Hajj on his behalf?
Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow his guidance. As for what follows:
In this case, he owes nothing. If he said, "If Allah wills, I will perform Hajj this year," and then Allah took his soul before that, he owes nothing, and his relatives owe nothing, provided he had already performed the obligatory Hajj.
However, if he had not performed the obligatory Hajj, and he was able to perform it during his lifetime, then they must take from his estate what is needed to perform Hajj on his behalf. But if he was poor, he owes nothing. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
