He should perform the obligatory Hajj because he is not obligated to repay his father's debt. However, if the father left an inheritance, his debt must be paid from it. Otherwise, his matter is with Allah. And let the son be gladdened that if his father took people's money with the intention of repaying it, then Allah will repay it on his behalf.
