Majma al-Zawaid 6982 — Fulfilling a vow on behalf of the deceased

وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو أَنَّ الْعَاصَ بْنَ وَائِلٍ نَذَرَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَنْ يَنْحَرَ مِائَةَ بَدَنَةٍ ، وَأَنَّ هِشَامَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ نَحَرَ حِصَّتَهُ خَمْسِينَ بَدَنَةً ، وَأَنَّ عَمْرًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ : " أَمَّا أَبُوكَ فَلَوْ كَانَ أَقَرَّ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ فَصُمْتَ وَتَصَدَّقْتَ عَنْهُ نَفَعَهُ ذَلِكَ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَرْطَاةَ ، وَهُوَ مُدَلِّسٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Al-As bin Wa'il vowed in the Days of Ignorance that he would slaughter one hundred camels. Hisham bin al-As slaughtered fifty camels as his share. Sayyiduna Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If your father had affirmed the Oneness of Allah (tawhid), then if you fasted and gave charity on his behalf, that would benefit him."
Ahmad recorded it; its chain contains al-Hajjaj bin Artah, who is a mudallis (one who conceals defects in the chain).
