A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "My mother vowed to perform the pilgrimage, but she died before she could do so. Should I perform the pilgrimage on her behalf?"He replied, "Yes, perform the pilgrimage on her behalf. Tell me, if your mother had a debt, would you not pay it off?"She said, "Yes."He said, "Then fulfill what is owed to Allah, for Allah is most deserving of being repaid."
أن امرأة جاءت إلى النبي ﷺ فقالت: إن أمي نذرت أن تحج، فماتت قبل أن تحج أفأحج عنها؟ قال: نعم حجي عنها، أرأيت لو كان على أمك دين أكنت قاضيته؟ قالت: نعم، قال: فاقضوا الله الذي له، فإن الله أحق بالوفاء.
