The Child's Hajj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Does a child have to perform Hajj, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
A child is not required to perform Hajj until he reaches puberty.
The questioner:
But it is permissible for him to do so once he does.
The Shaykh:
No, it is not obligatory; it becomes a voluntary act. Yes, his Hajj is valid and counts as a voluntary act.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah reward you.
