Question 11668

His daughter reached the age of puberty and died before the time of Hajj came. Does he have to do Hajj on her behalf?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

We put this question to Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen, may Allaah preserve him, who answered as follows:

 Did she leave any wealth behind?

 If the answer is yes,

 Then he should do Hajj on her behalf.

 And Allaah knows best.
