Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace.
The questioner : By Allah, currently we are hearing that obedience to the authority is obligatory for the duration of the matter. Yes. And my wife performed Hajj before this, two years ago. Yes. And she wants to go out for Hajj this year. Yes. And her residency permit was not completed after the Hajj. Yes. I mean, is there a religious violation in this?
The Shaykh : This is a matter that falls under the state's regulations. You should explain the matter to the authorities as it is. If you explain the matter as it is, Allah will make ease for you in your affair. Everyone who explains matters as they are and clarifies them, Allah will make their affairs easy.
The questioner : Yes. Okay, may Allah make our situation easy. And the residency was not completed before, I mean. I mean, is it open to us that we can perform Hajj, if Allah wills? But we performed Hajj once, two years ago. Yes. So is this a violation or not?
The Shaykh : In any case, explain the matter to the authorities as it is.
The questioner : Who is the authority?
The Shaykh : The authorities who look into passports are the ones responsible.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace.
