Chapter on the Hajj of Children

1136. hadíth

وَ رَوَى أَبَانٌ عَنِ اَلْحَكَمِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ: «اَلصَّبِيُّ إِذَا حُجَّ بِهِ فَقَدْ قَضَى حَجَّةَ اَلْإِسْلاَمِ حَتَّى يَكْبَرَ وَ اَلْعَبْدُ إِذَا حُجَّ بِهِ فَقَدْ قَضَى حَجَّةَ اَلْإِسْلاَمِ حَتَّى يُعْتَقَ.

Aban narrated from Al-Hakam, who said: I heard Abu Abdullah (a.s) say: "If a child is taken for Hajj, it does not fulfill the Hajj of Islam when they grow up. Similarly, if a servant is taken for Hajj, it does not fulfill the Hajj of Islam until they are freed."
