Hajj Badal 2025!
Hajj Badal refers to the act of performing Hajj on behalf of someone who is unable to perform Hajj themselves. This includes people who are deceased, chronically disabled, or sick.
We will appoint someone to perform Hajj for yourself if you are unable to do so, or for a deceased loved one if you are unable to do so for them.
On Behalf of Someone Who’s Sick or Disabled-
According to Abdullah bin Abbas’s narration, one day, his brother Al-Fadl was riding behind Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) when a woman from the Khath’am tribe approached them and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! The obligation of Hajj enjoined by Allah on His devotees has become due on my father, and he is old and weak, and he cannot sit firmly on the Mount; may I perform Hajj on his behalf?” To which Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) replied, “Yes, you may.” That event happened during the Hajj-al-Wida (of the Prophet PBUH).
(Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith – 2.589)
On Behalf of the Deceased-
Hajj Badal can be performed for someone who is deceased. It is supported by a narration of Ibn’Abbas, who said that once a woman from Juhaynah came to meet Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and asked, “My mother vowed or intended to go for Hajj, but she was unable to go for Hajj before she died. Should I perform Hajj on her behalf?”
To which Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) replied, “Yes, do Hajj on her behalf. Do you not think that you would pay it off for her if your mother were in debt? Pay off the debt that is owed to Allah, for Allah is more deserving than what is owed to Him should be paid off.”
(Narrated by al-Bukhari, 1754)
