Chapter on a Man Who Makes a Will for a Pilgrimage and His Executor Assigns it to Someone Else

1159. hadíth

رَوَى اِبْنُ مُسْكَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَوْصَى بِحَجَّةٍ فَجَعَلَهَا وَصِيُّهُ فِي نَسَمَةٍ قَالَ «يَغْرَمُهَا وَصِيُّهُ وَ يَجْعَلُهَا فِي حَجَّةٍ كَمَا أَوْصَى فَإِنَّ اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ: « فَمَنْ بَدَّلَهُ بَعْدَ مٰا سَمِعَهُ فَإِنَّمٰا إِثْمُهُ عَلَى اَلَّذِينَ يُبَدِّلُونَهُ » ».

Ibn Muskan narrated, who said that Abu Sa'id reported from Abu Abdullah (a.s): He was asked about a man who instructed in his will for a Hajj to be performed on his behalf, but his executor used the funds for another purpose. Imam (a.s) said: "The executor must bear the cost himself and ensure that it is used for a Hajj as specified in the will. For Allah (swt), the Exalted, says: 'But if anyone changes it after hearing it, the sin shall be upon those who make the change.' (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:181)."
