Obedience to the Mother in Prohibiting Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man wants to perform Hajj, and he is able to do so, but his mother wants him to stay with her, even though he has brothers who can take his place in his absence. The question is: does he obey her in the prohibition?

Answer:
If it is voluntary, he obeys her. If the Hajj is voluntary, he obeys his mother, and this is obligatory for him, unlike the voluntary or recommended Hajj. However, if it is obligatory, no one can prevent him from performing the obligatory act, just as his mother does not prevent him from prayer, so she does not prevent him from the obligatory Hajj. Yes.
