The Book of Haj
Manner of al-Hajj for Children and Slaves
5ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ يُونُسَ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَى الْمَمْلُوكِ حَجٌّ وَلا عُمْرَةٌ حَتَّى يُعْتَقَ.
5. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Mahbub from al-Fadl ibn Yunus who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan (a.s.), has said, ‘A slave is not obligated to perform al-Hajj or al-‘Umrah until he is free.’”
6ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنْ غِلْمَانٍ لَنَا دَخَلُوا مَعَنَا مَكَّةَ بِعُمْرَةٍ وَخَرَجُوا مَعَنَا إِلَى عَرَفَاتٍ بِغَيْرِ إِحْرَامٍ قَالَ قُلْ لَهُمْ يَغْتَسِلُونَ ثُمَّ يُحْرِمُونَ وَاذْبَحُوا عَنْهُمْ كَمَا تَذْبَحُونَ عَنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ.
6. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of boys who have come with us to Makkah for al-‘Umrah and then to Arafat without assuming the state of Ihram. He (the Imam) said, ‘Instruct them to take Ghusl (bath), assume the state of Ihram, slaughter for them as you slaughter (the offering animal) for yourself.’”
7ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ كُلُّ مَا أَصَابَ الْعَبْدُ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ فِي إِحْرَامِهِ فَهُوَ عَلَى السَّيِّدِ إِذَا أَذِنَ لَهُ فِي الإِحْرَامِ.
7. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad from Hariz who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Whatever a slave may commit in the state of Ihram is on his master, if he gives him permission to assume the state of Ihram.’”
8ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ غُلامٍ لَنَا خَرَجْتُ بِهِ مَعِي وَأَمَرْتُهُ فَتَمَتَّعَ وَأَهَلَّ بِالْحَجِّ يَوْمَ التَّرْوِيَةِ وَلَمْ أَذْبَحْ عَنْهُ أَ لَهُ أَنْ يَصُومَ بَعْدَ النَّفْرِ وَقَدْ ذَهَبَتِ الأَيَّامُ الَّتِي قَالَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَقَالَ أَلا كُنْتَ أَمَرْتَهُ أَنْ يُفْرِدَ الْحَجَّ قُلْتُ طَلَبْتُ الْخَيْرَ فَقَالَ كَمَا طَلَبْتَ الْخَيْرَ فَاذْبَحْ شَاةً سَمِينَةً وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ يَوْمَ النَّفْرِ الأَخِيرِ.
8. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from af-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn abu Hamzah who has said the following: “I once asked abu Ibrahim (a.s.), about the case of our slave who came with us with his wife, performed al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous) and said Talbiyah for al-Hajj on the day of al- Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hajj ah), but I did not offer sacrifice for him. Is he required to fast after leaving when the days have passed, about which Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, has spoken? He (the Imam) said, ‘Why did you not instruct him to perform in Ifrad manner (al-Hajj without al-‘Umrah)?’ I replied, ‘I sought goodness.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Just as you sought goodness, slaughter for him a fat sheep’ and that was the last day to leave.’”
9ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَمَرَ غِلْمَانَهُ أَنْ يَتَمَتَّعُوا قَالَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُضَحِّيَ عَنْهُمْ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهُ أَعْطَاهُمْ دَرَاهِمَ فَبَعْضُهُمْ ضَحَّى وَبَعْضُهُمْ أَمْسَكَ الدَّرَاهِمَ وَصَامَ قَالَ قَدْ أَجْزَأَ عَنْهُمْ وَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ إِنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَهَا قَالَ وَلَوْ أَنَّهُ أَمَرَهُمْ وَصَامُوا كَانَ قَدْ أَجْزَأَ عَنْهُمْ.
9. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Nasr from Sama‘ah who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who instructed his slaves to perform al- Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous). He (the Imam) said, ‘He must offer al-Hady (sacrifice) for them.’ I then said, ‘He gave them dirham. Certain ones among them offered sacrifice and others kept the dirham and fasted.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is sufficient for them and he has the choice; if he wants he can leave them (dirham) alone. If he were to instruct them to fast, it would have been sufficient.’”

The Case of a Person Who Dies During His First al-Hajj, or One Who Has Made a Will to Perform al-Hajj in His Behalf
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي رَجُلٍ تُوُفِّيَ وَأَوْصَى أَنْ يُحَجَّ عَنْهُ قَالَ إِنْ كَانَ صَرُورَةً فَمِنْ جَمِيعِ الْمَالِ إِنَّهُ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الدَّيْنِ الْوَاجِبِ وَإِنْ كَانَ قَدْ حَجَّ فَمِنْ ثُلُثِهِ وَمَنْ مَاتَ وَلَمْ يَحُجَّ حَجَّةَ الإِسْلامِ وَلَمْ يَتْرُكْ إِلاَّ قَدْرَ نَفَقَةِ الْحَمُولَةِ وَلَهُ وَرَثَةٌ فَهُمْ أَحَقُّ بِمَا تَرَكَ فَإِنْ شَاءُوا أَكَلُوا وَإِنْ شَاءُوا أَحَجُّوا عَنْهُ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “If a man in his will says to perform al-Hajj on his behalf, abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘If it is his first al-Hajj, it is performed from his entire legacy. It is like debts, but if it is other than his first al-Hajj, then it is performed from one-third of his legacy. If one dies without performing Hajjahta al-Islam, whose legacy is just enough for transportation, and leaves behind heirs, then they are more rightful to have his legacy. If they like they can use it, or if they like they can perform al-Hajj on his behalf.’”
2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي خَلَفٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ الصَّرُورَةِ يَحُجُّ عَنِ الْمَيِّتِ قَالَ نَعَمْ إِذَا لَمْ يَجِدِ الصَّرُورَةُ مَا يَحُجُّ بِهِ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَا يَحُجُّ بِهِ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ فَلَيْسَ يُجْزِئُ عَنْهُ حَتَّى يَحُجَّ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَهِيَ تُجْزِئُ عَنِ الْمَيِّتِ إِنْ كَانَ لِلصَّرُورَةِ مَالٌ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ.
2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Sa‘d ibn abu Khalaf who has said the following: “I once asked abu al-Hassan, Musa (a.s.), about a man who has not performed any al-Hajj, performs al-Hajj on behalf of a deceased. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, he can do so if he does not find any means to perform al-Hajj for himself. However, if he has enough to perform al-Hajj for himself, then it is not enough until he performs al-Hajj from his own assets. It (al-Hajj that he has performed) is sufficient for the deceased regardless of whether al-Sarura (one who performs al-Hajj for the first time) has any asset or not.’”
3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي رَجُلٍ صَرُورَةٍ مَاتَ وَلَمْ يَحُجَّ حَجَّةَ الإِسْلامِ وَلَهُ مَالٌ قَالَ يَحُجُّ عَنْهُ صَرُورَةٌ لا مَالَ لَهُ.
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “About the case of an al-Sarura (one who performs al-Hajj for the first time) who dies without performing Hajjahta al-Islam and has an asset, abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘An al- Sarura (one who performs al-Hajj for the first time) who does not have any asset performs al-Hajj on his behalf.’”
4ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَمُوتُ وَيُوصِي بِحَجَّةٍ فَيُعْطَى رَجُلٌ دَرَاهِمَ يَحُجُّ بِهَا عَنْهُ فَيَمُوتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَحُجَّ ثُمَّ أُعْطِيَ الدَّرَاهِمَ غَيْرُهُ قَالَ إِنْ مَاتَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ أَوْ بِمَكَّةَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ مَنَاسِكَهُ فَإِنَّهُ يُجْزِئُ عَنِ الأَوَّلِ قُلْتُ فَإِنِ ابْتُلِيَ بِشَيْءٍ يُفْسِدُ عَلَيْهِ حَجَّهُ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَجُّ مِنْ قَابِلٍ أَ يُجْزِئُ عَنِ الأَوَّلِ قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ لأَنَّ الأَجِيرَ ضَامِنٌ لِلْحَجِّ قَالَ نَعَمْ.
4. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who dies and says in his will to perform al-Hajj on his behalf, and a man is given expenses of al-Hajj to perform al-Hajj on behalf of the deceased but he also dies before performing al-Hajj, then dirhams are given to someone else. He (the Imam) said, ‘If he dies on the way or in Makkah before completing the acts of al-Hajj, it is sufficient for the first deceased.’ I then asked, ‘What happens if he (one hired to perform al-Hajj) is involved in something that invalidates his al-Hajj which requires him to perform al-Hajj in future, is it sufficient for the first deceased?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, it is sufficient.’ I then asked, ‘Is it because a person on hire is responsible for al-Hajj?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, that is correct.’”
5ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي رَجُلٍ أَعْطَى رَجُلاً مَا يَحُجُّهُ فَحَدَثَ بِالرَّجُلِ حَدَثٌ فَقَالَ إِنْ كَانَ خَرَجَ فَأَصَابَهُ فِي بَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ فَقَدْ أَجْزَأَتْ عَنِ الأَوَّلِ وَإِلاَّ فَلا.
5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Al-Husayn ibn ‘Uthman from those whom he has mentioned who has said the following: “About a man who pays another man to perform al-Hajj but something happens to him, abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘If he (the second man) goes for al-Hajj and something happens somewhere on the way, it is sufficient for the first one.’”
