The Messenger of Allah ﷺ seated Fadl bin Abbas behind him on the back of his mount on the Day of Sacrifice. Fadl was a handsome young man. The Prophet ﷺ stopped to give religious rulings to the people, and a beautiful woman from the tribe of Khathaam came forward to seek a ruling from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Fadl began staring at her, captivated by her beauty. The Prophet ﷺ turned around and saw Fadl gazing at her, so he reached back with his hand, took hold of Fadl's chin, and turned his face away from looking at her.She said, "Messenger of Allah, the obligation of Hajj that Allah has prescribed upon His servants has come due upon my father, who is now an old man unable to sit firmly upon a mount. Will it fulfill the obligation on his behalf if I perform Hajj for him?"He replied, "Yes."
حدثنا أبو اليمان أخبرنا شعيب عن الزهري قال أخبرني سليمان بن يسار أخبرني
أردف رسول الله ﷺ الفضل بن عباس يوم النحر خلفه على عجز راحلته وكان الفضل رجلا وضيئا فوقف النبي ﷺ للناس يفتيهم وأقبلت امرأة من خثعم وضيئة تستفتي رسول الله ﷺ فطفق الفضل ينظر إليها وأعجبه حسنها فالتفت النبي ﷺ والفضل ينظر إليها فأخلف بيده فأخذ بذقن الفضل فعدل وجهه عن النظر إليها فقالت يا رسول الله إن فريضة الله في الحج على عباده أدركت أبي شيخا كبيرا لا يستطيع أن يستوي على الراحلة فهل يقضي عنه أن أحج عنه قال نعم
