Hadith record

2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Faddal from certain persons of our people from ‘Amr ibn ’Ilyas who has said the following: “I performed al-Hajj with my father and I was al-Sarura (one who performs al-Hajj for the first time). I said that I like to perform al-Hajj for my mother who was dead. He said allow me to ask abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about it. ’Ilyas then spoke about it with abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), when I was listening. ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, my son, this one, is al- Sarura (one who performs al-Hajj for the first time). His mother has died and he likes to perform al- Hajj for her, if it is permissible. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), said, ‘It will be written for him and for her and for him a reward for kindness will also be recorded.’”
