1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, ’Can I perform al-Hajj and consider my father as my partner in it?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘Yes, you can do so.’ I then asked, ‘Can I perform al-Hajj and consider my brothers as my partner in it?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘Yes, you can do so; Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, will make one al-Hajj for you and one al-Hajj for them, besides the reward for you because of maintaining good relations with them.’ I then asked, ‘Can I perform al-Hajj and consider a man or woman in al-Kufah as my partner in it?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘You can do so. At the beginning of such Tawaf say, “O Allah, accept it from so and so,” mention the person on whose behalf it is.”’”
