"Gifting"
the reward of performing tawaaf to someone else
*Please appropriately reference this
fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: What is the ruling regarding "gifting"
the reward of performing tawaaf
to someone else, whereby some people approach others and say
to them: "Do seven for me!", meaning: seven circuits,
intending the reward for themselves. So is this permissible
or not?
Response:
It is not permisisble to performing the tawaaf
around the Ka'bah
for someone else. So no-one should perform the tawaaf
for othe rthan themselves unless he is performing Hajj or
'Umrah (on behalf of someone else); So he does so in entirety
(completing the) Hajj or 'Umrah (and not just a part thereof).
And
with Allaah lies all success and may Allaah send prayers and
salutations upon our Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) and his family and his companions.
