It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) heard a man saying: "Labbayk 'an Shubrumah" (Here I am, on behalf of Shubrumah). He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Who is this Shubrumah?" He said: a relative of mine, or he said: my brother. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Have you ever performed Hajj yourself?" He said: No. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then make this Hajj for yourself, then perform Hajj on behalf of Shubrumah."
This chain is sahih (authentic); there is nothing in this chapter more authentic than it.
