A man from Khathaam came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "My father has been overtaken by Islam as a very old man, unable to mount his saddle, yet the Hajj is obligatory upon him. Shall I perform Hajj on his behalf?"He asked, "Are you his eldest son?"The man replied, "Yes."He said, "Tell me, if your father had a debt and you paid it off on his behalf, would that suffice for him?"The man answered, "Yes."He said, "Then perform Hajj on his behalf."
