Q 2: is it better for a person who has done the obligatory Hajj to voluntarily repeat Hajj for themselves or to intend on some years to do it on behalf of a relative, either dead or alive, who is incapable of performing it themselves? That is, one year to perform Hajj for themselves and the next Hajj to intend it for one of the relatives.


A: You should perform it on behalf of your mother first and then your father. If one of them has already performed the obligatory Hajj, you should start with the other one who has not performed it yet, then the closest of kin and then the next closest of kin. Relatives should be prioritized according to the reply that the Prophet (peace be upon him) gave when he was asked: "To whom should I be most dutiful?" He replied, "Your mother." He said, "Then who?" He said, "Your mother." He said, "Then who?" He said, "Your mother." He said, "Then who?" He said, "Your father, then the closest of kin and then the next closest of kin." (Related by Muslim in his "Sahih [Book of Authentic Hadith]") (Part No. 11; Page No. 67) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
