The wife's right to perform the obligatory Hajj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And may Allah bless you, Honorable Shaykh. The sister Umm Salih has a set of questions about Hajj as well. She says: Do I have the right, Shaykh, to take my husband's permission this year and I want to perform Hajj, because I have not yet performed the obligatory Hajj?
Answer:
If Hajj becomes feasible for you by having the money and a mahram (a relative one may not marry), then it is obligatory for you to hasten to perform Hajj. The husband has no right to object to you performing the obligatory duty, and it is not befitting for the husband to prevent you from performing the obligatory Hajj if it becomes feasible, because this is an obligation upon you. Just as he does not prevent you from the obligation of prayer or the obligation of fasting in Ramadan, he does not prevent you from the obligation of Hajj. Yes.
