May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, regarding a young man who wants to perform Hajj and 'Umrah but has not yet married, which should he start with, given that he has not performed Hajj or 'Umrah?

If he has money that is sufficient for both Hajj and marriage, he should perform Hajj. However, if he has money that is sufficient for only one of them, then if he fears harm to himself, he should prioritize marriage. If he does not fear harm to himself, he should prioritize Hajj. Yes.
