Hadith # 1280
Laqit bin 'Amir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I came to the Prophet (PBUH) and said: "My father is a very old man and does not have strength to perform Hajj (pilgrimage) or 'Umrah or to undertake the journey." The Prophet (PBUH) said, "Perform Hajj and 'Umrah on behalf of your father."
[At-Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud]
Commentary
This Hadith also stresses permission of Hajj through representative where a person is not capable of doing it. But it is essential that the representative agent must have already performed Hajj.
