Hadith.2916 - Ali ibn Ri'ab narrated from Burayd al-‘Ijli, who said
I asked Abu Ja'far (as) about a man who set out for Hajj with his camel, provisions, and expenses, but died on the way. Imam (as) said: "If he was a ṣarūra (someone who had not performed the Hajj of Islam) and died within the haram, it suffices as the Hajj of Islam. If he died as a ṣarūra before entering into Ihram, his camel, provisions, expenses, and all that he had with him should be used to fulfill the Hajj of Islam on his behalf. If there is anything left over, it goes to his heirs, provided he had no debts." I asked: "What if the Hajj was voluntary, and he died on the way before entering into Ihram? What happens to his camel, expenses, and belongings?" Imam (as) said: "Everything he had and left behind goes to his heirs unless he had debts, in which case they are paid from his estate. If he left a will, it is carried out for the person he designated, with the will being fulfilled from one-third of his estate."
2916 - وَ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ رِئَابٍ عَنْ بُرَيْدٍ اَلْعِجْلِيِّ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ خَرَجَ حَاجّاً وَ مَعَهُ جَمَلٌ لَهُ وَ نَفَقَةٌ وَ زَادٌ فَمَاتَ فِي اَلطَّرِيقِ قَالَ «إِنْ كَانَ صَرُورَةً ثُمَّ مَاتَ فِي اَلْحَرَمِ فَقَدْ أَجْزَأَتْ عَنْهُ حَجَّةُ اَلْإِسْلاَمِ وَ إِنْ كَانَ مَاتَ وَ هُوَ صَرُورَةٌ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُحْرِمَ جُعِلَ جَمَلُهُ وَ زَادُهُ وَ نَفَقَتُهُ وَ مَا مَعَهُ فِي حَجَّةِ اَلْإِسْلاَمِ، فَإِنْ فَضَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ فَهُوَ لِلْوَرَثَةِ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ» قُلْتُ أَ رَأَيْتَ إِنْ كَانَتِ اَلْحَجَّةُ تَطَوُّعاً ثُمَّ مَاتَ فِي اَلطَّرِيقِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُحْرِمَ لِمَنْ يَكُونُ جَمَلُهُ وَ نَفَقَتُهُ وَ مَا مَعَهُ قَالَ «يَكُونُ جَمِيعُ مَا مَعَهُ وَ مَا تَرَكَ لِلْوَرَثَةِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَيُقْضَى عَنْهُ أَوْ يَكُونَ أَوْصَى بِوَصِيَّةٍ فَيَنْفُذَ ذَلِكَ لِمَنْ أَوْصَى لَهُ وَ يُجْعَلَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ ثُلُثِهِ».
