English translation
5393. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin 'Abbâs said: "Al-Faql bin 'Abbâs was riding behind the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ when a woman from Khath'am came to ask him a question. Al-Faql started looking at her, and she at him, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ turned the face of Al-Faql the other way. She said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, the command of Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, to His slaves to perform Hajj has come while my father is an old man, and he cannot sit firmly in the saddle; can I perform Hajj on his behalf? He said: 'Yes.' That was during the Farewell Pilgrimage." (Sahih)
