What is the ruling if the Hajj is missed due to the agent's negligence?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Hajj
Primary text
If the principal misses the Hajj due to the agent's negligence, the makeup Hajj (*Qada'*) is required of the agent. The expenses incurred by the principal are accounted for towards the makeup Hajj.
Supporting text
If the Hajj is missed without negligence on the part of the agent, the expenses are accounted for because the missed Hajj was not due to the agent's action, which makes the situation similar to the principal dying before completing the Hajj.
