A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Muhammad ibn al-Hassan al-Shammun from ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman al-Asamm from Misma’ ibn ‘Abd al-Malik who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘If a servant were to perform ten Hajj, the Hajj al-Islam would also be (obligatory) upon him if he was capable of doing so. If a boy performed ten Hajj and then reached puberty, the obligation of (Hajj) al-Islam would be upon him. If a slave performed ten Hajj and was subsequently freed, the obligation of (Hajj) al-Islam would be upon him if he was capable of doing so.”’
