The ruling on the obligatory Hajj if one of the parents does not consent
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What is the ruling on performing Hajj when one has the means, but one of the parents does not want him to perform the obligatory Hajj? I ask for guidance. May Allah reward you.
Answer:
If the parents need you to stay with them to serve them because they are ill or disabled and require your service, you stay with them and postpone the obligatory Hajj to another time. However, if the parents are wealthy and do not need you, they have no right to prevent you from performing the obligatory Hajj. Just as they do not prevent you from prayer or fasting, it is not permissible for them to prevent you from the obligatory Hajj. So you perform Hajj even if they do not approve of it.
