Postponing the repayment of a debt after performing the obligatory Hajj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I have been working in the Kingdom for six months, and I wish to perform the obligatory Hajj this year. I have a debt to my full brothers. Is it permissible to postpone repaying the debt after performing the obligatory Hajj? And is borrowing with interest… This is another question, Shaykh?
Answer:
If you have income that is sufficient for Hajj and sufficient to pay off the debt, then perform Hajj. But if the income is not sufficient for both, you start by paying off the debt, and Hajj is not obligatory on you unless they permit you. If the creditors permit you to perform Hajj, there is no harm. Yes.
