Sunan Ibn Majah 2908 (Book 25, Hadith 27) #32262
Performing Hajj on Behalf of Others

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) advised a man to perform Hajj on behalf of his father who was unable to do so himself.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: Husain bin 'Awf told me: I said: "O Messenger of Allah, the command for Hajj has come but my father cannot perform Hajj unless he is tied to a saddle". Some time passed, then he said: "Perform Hajj on behalf of your father".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كُرَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حُصَيْنُ بْنُ عَوْفٍ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَبِي أَدْرَكَهُ الْحَجُّ وَلاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَحُجَّ إِلاَّ مُعْتَرِضًا ‏.‏ فَصَمَتَ سَاعَةً ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ حُجَّ عَنْ أَبِيكَ
