Performing
hajj on behalf of a paralytic son
*Please appropriately reference
this fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: I have a paralytic son, and am thinking
about him doing hajj, because if he was to do the hajj himself,
then I fear that he will suffer harm. So is it permissible
for me to do the hajj on his behalf?
Response:
If the son is (indeed) paralytic as you say, then it is permissible
for you to do the obligatory hajj on his behalf if you have
already done the hajj for yourself.
