1. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Mansur ibn al-‘Abbas from Ali ibn Asbat from a man of our people called ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Sinan who has said the following: “Once I was in the presence of abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), when someone came, and he (the Imam) gave him thirty dinar to perform al-Hajj for ‘Isma‘il, and set a condition to perform all acts of al-Hajj and al-‘Umrah, even walking in manner of running in Muhassar valley. He (the Imam) then said, ‘O so and so, if you did as the conditions require you to do, it will be al-Hajj for ‘Isma‘il that you are paid for, and you will have nine times over for tiring your body.”’

2. Muhammad b. Yahya has narrated from Muhammad b. al-Hassan from Ali b. Yusuf from Abi ‘Abdillah al-Mu’min from Ibn Muskan who has said the following: “I once asked Abi ‘Abdillah (a.s.), about a man who performs Hajj for others; if he receives any reward. He (the Imam) said, ‘For the one who performs Hajj for another person there is a reward of ten Hajj pilgrimages for him.’”
