3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنْ رَجُلٍ حَجَّ عَنْ غَيْرِهِ أَ يُجْزِئُهُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ حَجَّةِ الإِسْلامِ قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ حَجَّةُ الْجَمَّالِ تَامَّةٌ أَوْ نَاقِصَةٌ قَالَ تَامَّةٌ قُلْتُ حَجَّةُ الأَجِيرِ تَامَّةٌ أَمْ نَاقِصَةٌ قَالَ تَامَّةٌ.

3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah , about a man who performs al-Hajj for someone else; if it is sufficient for Hajjahta al-Islam. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes it is sufficient.’ I then asked, ‘Is al- Hajj of a camel-man complete or defective?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is complete.’ I asked, ‘Is al-Hajj on hire complete or defective?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is complete.’”
