The ruling on performing Hajj on behalf of one who is able to perform Hajj

Question:
He says: Is it permissible for a man to say to his son: "Perform Hajj for me," when he is in good condition? He has the wealth that enables him to perform Hajj? Please inform us, may Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
No, it is not permissible for him to perform Hajj on behalf of his father, nor on behalf of anyone other than his father, as long as his father is able to perform Hajj. And he should not say to him: "Perform Hajj for me." His father should not say to him: "Perform Hajj for me," because this is not permissible. Rather, Hajj is performed on behalf of the deceased, or the one who is unable, the elderly person, the very old woman, or the old man, or the sick person whose recovery is not expected. This is the one for whom Hajj is performed, and there is no harm in it.
As for a healthy person, or a sick person whose illness is expected to end, Hajj is not performed on his behalf, neither by his order nor without his order, not for a father, nor for anyone else. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
