حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الطَّالَقَانِيُّ ، وَهَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ الْمَعْنَى وَاحِدٌ ، قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ عَزْرَةَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَمِعَ رَجُلًا ، يَقُولُ : لَبَّيْكَ عَنْ شُبْرُمَةَ ، قَالَ : " مَنْ شُبْرُمَةُ ؟ " قَالَ : أَخٌ لِي ، أَوْ قَرِيبٌ لِي ، قَالَ : " حَجَجْتَ عَنْ نَفْسِكَ " ، قَالَ : لَا ، قَالَ : " حُجَّ عَنْ نَفْسِكَ ، ثُمَّ حُجَّ عَنْ شُبْرُمَةَ " .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet ﷺ heard a man say: Labbayk (always ready to obey) on behalf of Shubrumah. He asked: Who is Shubrumah? He replied: A brother or relative of mine. He asked: Have you performed hajj on your own behalf? He said: No. He said: perform hajj on your own behalf, then perform it on behalf of Shubrumah.

➌ It is a condition for Hajj al-Badal that the one performing Hajj must have already performed Hajj for himself.
➍ The same ruling applies to ‘Umrah.
➎ In Hajj al-Badal, when reciting the talbiyah (labbaik), the name of the person on whose behalf Hajj or ‘Umrah is being performed should be mentioned.
