Hadith 1360
Hadith.2926 - Ali ibn Mahziyar narrated from Muhammad ibn Isma'il, who said
I instructed someone to ask Abu al-Hasan (as) about a man who accepts funds for Hajj from one person, but it is insufficient. Can he then take another Hajj fund from a different person to cover the costs, allowing it to suffice for both of them? Or should he abandon both if one is insufficient? Imam (as) replied: "It is preferable to dedicate the Hajj exclusively to one person. If it is insufficient, he should not accept it."
2926 - رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ
أَمَرْتُ رَجُلاً أَنْ يَسْأَلَ أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَأْخُذُ مِنَ اَلرَّجُلِ حَجَّةً فَلاَ تَكْفِيهِ أَ لَهُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ آخَرَ حَجَّةً أُخْرَى فَيَتَّسِعَ بِهَا فَتُجْزِيَ عَنْهُمَا جَمِيعاً أَوْ يَتْرُكُهُمَا جَمِيعاً إِنْ لَمْ تَكْفِهِ إِحْدَاهُمَا فَذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ «أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ تَكُونَ خَالِصَةً لِوَاحِدٍ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ لاَ تَكْفِيهِ فَلاَ يَأْخُذْهَا».
