Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Sulayman from al-Kharj, says: There are some people who help new Muslims with their Hajj. My question is: Is it permissible for me to contribute a small amount so that I may receive the reward? Or is it obligatory for me to cover all of his expenses from the beginning of his journey until he returns home in order to receive the full reward?
Answer:
Both options are permissible. You may participate with those who help the pilgrims, and you will receive the reward for that. Or you may take sole responsibility for the expenses of a specific pilgrim, and this is better. Taking sole responsibility for a specific pilgrim’s expenses from beginning to end is better than participating. Yes.
