Chapter on One Who Bequeaths an Insufficient Amount for Hajj

I said to him: "A man instructed in his will to allocate twenty dinars for a Hajj." Imam (as) said: "A man should perform Hajj with it from wherever the amount suffices for him to begin."

Hadith.2928 - Ibrahim ibn Mahziyar wrote to Abu Muhammad (as): "I inform you, my master, that your servant Ali ibn Mahziyar instructed in his will that Hajj be performed on his behalf from a property, a quarter of which he dedicated for this purpose, allocating one Hajj every year with twenty dinars. However, since the route to Basra has been cut off, the expenses for travel have significantly increased, and twenty dinars are no longer sufficient. Similarly, several of your followers have made wills for two Hajj pilgrimages." Imam (as) wrote back: "Combine three Hajj pilgrimages into two, God willing."

Hadith.2929 - Ali ibn Muhammad al-Hudhayni wrote to Imam (as): "My cousin instructed in his will that Hajj be performed on his behalf every year with fifteen dinars, but this amount is not sufficient. What do you command me to do in this matter?" Imam (as) wrote back: "Combine two Hajj pilgrimages into one, God willing. Allah (swt) is aware of this."
