What is the ruling on a young man performing Hajj on behalf of a deceased person for the second time? And will there be reward for that? And is it permissible to take financial compensation for it? And what is the authenticity of the narration: "Whoever performs Hajj on behalf of another will have the reward of seven Hajj pilgrimages"?
The aforementioned Hadith was not found with this exact wording. The existing wording is: "Whoever performs Hajj on behalf of a deceased person, then he who performed it for him will receive a reward similar to his." Al-Albani graded it as weak.
