Performing Hajj on behalf of one's mother

Q 1: I am an Egyptian primary school teacher and I work in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. By the Grace of Allah, I was able to (Part No. 10; Page No. 31) perform Hajj last year in 1410 A.H. I provide for my six children, my mother, and my wife who do not have anyone except me. Moreover, I have no other source of income except my salary. Your Eminence surely knows that Hajj is expensive these days as a person needs approximately five thousands pounds to perform Hajj and as a middle class man I cannot afford this large sum of money. My seventy year old mother does not have this amount of money and she does not own property to sell to get this sum to perform the obligatory Hajj. Is it permissible for me to perform the obligatory Hajj on her behalf because she cannot afford it? It is worth mentioning that the cost of Hajj will be low since I am living in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Please guide me, may Allah benefit you!

A: Hajj is not obligatory on your mother since she cannot afford it. Moreover, it is impermissible for you to perform Hajj on her behalf as she can physically perform it if she has the money.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
