Sunan Abi Dawud 1811 (Book 11, Hadith 91) #22103
Performing Hajj for Others

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) taught that one should perform Hajj on their own behalf before performing it on behalf of someone else.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet heard a man say: Labbayk (always ready to obey) on behalf of Shubrumah. He asked: Who is Shubrumah? He replied: A brother or relative of mine. He asked: Have you performed hajj on your own behalf? He said: #He said: perform hajj on your own behalf, then perform it on behalf of Shubrumah.
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الطَّالْقَانِيُّ، وَهَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، - الْمَعْنَى وَاحِدٌ - قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ عَزْرَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ سَمِعَ رَجُلاً يَقُولُ لَبَّيْكَ عَنْ شُبْرُمَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ مَنْ شُبْرُمَةَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَخٌ لِي أَوْ قَرِيبٌ لِي ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ حَجَجْتَ عَنْ نَفْسِكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ حُجَّ عَنْ نَفْسِكَ ثُمَّ حُجَّ عَنْ شُبْرُمَةَ
