4. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who dies and says in his will to perform al-Hajj on his behalf, and a man is given expenses of al-Hajj to perform al-Hajj on behalf of the deceased but he also dies before performing al-Hajj, then dirhams are given to someone else. He (the Imam) said, ‘If he dies on the way or in Makkah before completing the acts of al-Hajj, it is sufficient for the first deceased.’ I then asked, ‘What happens if he (one hired to perform al-Hajj) is involved in something that invalidates his al-Hajj which requires him to perform al-Hajj in future, is it sufficient for the first deceased?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, it is sufficient.’ I then asked, ‘Is it because a person on hire is responsible for al-Hajj?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, that is correct.’”
4ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَمُوتُ وَيُوصِي بِحَجَّةٍ فَيُعْطَى رَجُلٌ دَرَاهِمَ يَحُجُّ بِهَا عَنْهُ فَيَمُوتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَحُجَّ ثُمَّ أُعْطِيَ الدَّرَاهِمَ غَيْرُهُ قَالَ إِنْ مَاتَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ أَوْ بِمَكَّةَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ مَنَاسِكَهُ فَإِنَّهُ يُجْزِئُ عَنِ الأَوَّلِ قُلْتُ فَإِنِ ابْتُلِيَ بِشَيْ‏ءٍ يُفْسِدُ عَلَيْهِ حَجَّهُ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَجُّ مِنْ قَابِلٍ أَ يُجْزِئُ عَنِ الأَوَّلِ قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ لأَنَّ الأَجِيرَ ضَامِنٌ لِلْحَجِّ قَالَ نَعَمْ.
