Question:
Yes, the second question, Shaykh Salih. Regarding the obligation of Hajj, is it dropped from me because I am unable to perform it due to financial circumstances? Thank you, thank you.
Answer:
If you do not have it. Yes. Please proceed with the answer, Shaykh. If he does not have the ability in wealth for Hajj, neither in his body nor in his money, then Hajj is not obligatory upon him. But if he has the ability for Hajj in his wealth and does not have the ability for Hajj in his person, then he appoints someone to perform Hajj on his behalf and gives him the cost of the Hajj. Yes.
