Chapter on Delegating Hajj to Someone Who Undertakes it
وَ رُوِيَ: أَنَّ اَلصَّادِقَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَعْطَى رَجُلاً ثَلاَثِينَ دِينَاراً فَقَالَ لَهُ «حُجَّ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَ اِفْعَلْ وَ اِفْعَلْ وَ لَكَ تِسْعٌ وَ لَهُ وَاحِدَةٌ ».
It was narrated that Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام gave a man thirty dinars and said to him: "Perform Hajj on behalf of Isma'il, and do this and that, and you shall have nine [portions of reward], while he shall have one."
