Hajj Fatwas
Question:
If I give someone money for the sake of Allah to perform hajj will I be rewarded for performing hajj?
Fatwa:
All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad 
is His slave and Messenger.
is His slave and Messenger.If a Muslim helps another Muslim financially in order to perform Hajj, then it is hoped that Allah will grant the latter the reward of Hajj, because whoever guides people to do good, he gets the same reward as the person who performs that good deed as confirmed by the Prophet . This help is also included in helping in righteousness and piety, as Allah Says (what means): {Help you one another in virtue, righteousness and piety but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty.}[Quran 5:2]

This help is also included in helping in righteousness and piety, as Allah Says (what means): {Help you one another in virtue, righteousness and piety but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty.}[Quran 5:2]Similarly, if a person is unable to perform Hajj due to a sickness from which he is not expected to recover or due to being advanced in age, and another person performs Hajj on his behalf, then the former [the person who is unable] will get the reward of performing Hajj, Allah willing, and he becomes acquitted from the obligation of Hajj.
