Is it better for me to perform the obligatory Hajj or to take my mother on Hajj?

Question:
May Allah reward you. The listener, Badawi (may Allah have mercy on him), from Sudan, says: My father has already performed Hajj, praise be to Allah. I have the desire to take my mother on Hajj, and I had promised her that I would complete her Hajj, but the money did not help me. Is there a sin on her part? Knowing that I want to perform Hajj for myself, but there are those who say it is not permissible for me to perform Hajj before my mother. Please clarify this for us. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Perform Hajj for yourself first, the Hajj of Islam, and then take your mother on Hajj. This is if you do not have sufficient maintenance for both your Hajj and your mother’s Hajj. In that case, you begin with your own Hajj, you perform the Hajj of Islam, and then you take your mother on Hajj in the future if that becomes easy. Otherwise, she has no obligation to perform Hajj as long as she is unable due to financial constraints, and she is not able to perform it, unless you provide the expenses for her Hajj. In that case, she would then be able to perform it, and this is only after you have performed Hajj for yourself. Yes.
