Paying someone to perform one's qadha salaah

Q: Is it permissible to pay someone to pray qaza e umri on one's own behalf or on the behalf of someone who is dead. Please answer both the scenerios

A: No. All the imaams are unanimous that qadha-e-umri cannot be performed by someone else on one's behalf.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
