riding behind Allah's Apostle and a woman from the tribe of
Khath'am came and Al-Fadl started looking at her and she
started looking at him. The Prophet turned Al-Fadl's face to
the other side. The woman said, "O Allah's Apostle! The
obligation of Hajj enjoined by Allah on His devotees has
become due on my father and he is old and weak, and he
cannot sit firm on the Mount; may I perform Hajj on his
behalf?" The Prophet replied, "Yes, you may." That happened
during the Hajj-al-Wida (of the Prophet ).
