2 حجَّ بي مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم في حجة الوداع، وأنا ابن سبع سنين
I was taken to perform pilgrimage with the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) in the Farewell Pilgrimage, when I was seven years old.

عن السَّائب بن يزيد رضي الله عنهما قال: «حُجَّ بي مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم في حجة الوداع، وأنا ابن سبع سنين».

As-Sā’ib ibn Yazīd (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I was taken to perform pilgrimage with the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) in the Farewell Pilgrimage, when I was seven years old.

صحيح - ( رواه البخاري ). Sahih/Authentic. [Al-Bukhari]

السائب بن يزيد رضي الله عنهما صحابيٌّ صغير، حجَّ به أهْلُهُ على عهد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فأدرك حجة الوداع، وأقرهم النبي -عليه الصلاة والسلام- على الحج بالصبيان، وتُحسَبُ له حجة تطوع، لكن إذا بلغ يَلْزَمُهُ أن يحج مَرةً أخرى حجة الإسلام، ويفعل الصَّبِيُّ في الحج مثل فعل الكبير من الإحرام والتَّجرُّد مِنَ المخِيطِ والتلبية ونحوها، فإذا عجز عنها فعلها عنه وَلِيُّهُ، كأبيه وأمه.
As-Sā’ib ibn Yazīd (may Allah be pleased with him) was a young Companion. He preformed Hajj with his family during the lifetime of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) in the Farewell Pilgrimage. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) approved that young children perform Hajj and said that they would be rewarded for it. However, it is considered a voluntary Hajj, and they must perform the obligatory Hajj after reaching puberty. The child does in his Hajj the same rituals that the adult does, including Ihrām, not wearing form-fitting clothes, saying the Talbiyah, and so on. If the child is unable to do any of the rituals, then his guardian - such as his father or mother - should do it on his behalf.

جواز حجِّ الصبي قبل البلوغ؛ ليتعود على الطاعة ويَألَفَهَا. تَدْرِيبُ الأبناء على أداء العبادات. كِتَابةُ الأجر للصبي والولي على أداء الحج وإن كان تطوعًا.
