The questioner:

The Shaykh:
Is that so?

The questioner:
I work in the military sector, and I want to perform Hajj, and I have work during the leave period for two days, but on the days of Hajj I have no work at all. So, is it obligatory for me to ask for permission to perform Hajj, or not?

The Shaykh:
You must ask for permission from your authority, because work might arise, because work might arise and they might need you for work, so you must ask for permission. If you want to perform Hajj while you are a soldier or military personnel, you must ask for permission from your authority, yes. Even if, as you mentioned, you have no work on the days of Hajj, work might arise, accidents happen, work arises, yes.
