It is narrated from Sayyiduna Fadl (may Allah be pleased with him) that a woman from the tribe of Khath’am came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) on the morning of Muzdalifah, at that time Sayyiduna Fadl (may Allah be pleased with him) was riding behind the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). She said: O Messenger of Allah! The obligation of Hajj has been imposed by Allah upon my father in the matter of Hajj, but he has become so old that he cannot even sit on a mount. Can I perform Hajj on his behalf? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Yes!”
