The Ruling on One Who Performs Hajj While Owning a Debt

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. The listener Ahmad Muhammad al-Fa' sent a question, saying: Is it permissible for me to perform Hajj while I have a debt, after the creditor has allowed me to do so and I promised him to pay it back after the Hajj? Is that permissible or not? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
If the creditor has allowed you to perform Hajj and you do so, there is nothing wrong with it; because the right belongs to the creditor, so if he allows you to perform Hajj before you pay your debt, there is no blame on you for that. Yes.
