Question

My elder brother was rich and had to perform Hajj. But in the year of Hajj, he fell ill and later died. He could not perform Hajj. Ten days before his death, he gave me a check for Rs. 60,000 for performing Hajj on his behalf and bequeathed it to me for performing Hajj on his behalf. I have not done any Hajj before. Hajj was not obligatory on me. When I asked the rabbis of Kakrail for advice on performing the Hajj bequeathed to me, they advised me to take a written fatwa from Jamia Rahmania. So in this situation, can I perform Hajj instead of my brother? Want to know the right decision in this regard? 3475425723

Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

After Hajj became obligatory on your brother, he bequeathed the Hajj and left the money and fulfilled his responsibility. Therefore, it is important to perform Hajj on his behalf. It is important to know that it is permissible for a person who has not performed Hajj to perform Hajj on behalf of others. In this case, however, Hajj is to be performed on him by entering Makkah. But since he entered Makkah in ihram to perform Hajj at the expense of another person, the Hajj will be performed on his behalf. There will be no separate Hajj on him. However, it will be important for him to learn the masajils of Hajj well and to perform Hajj properly with a learned person or at least one who has performed Hajj before, knowing the masajils of Hajj. Of course, it is better to perform Hajj instead of a person who has performed his obligatory Hajj and has a good knowledge of the rules of Hajj. 1926782592
