A father performing Hajj for his children from his own wealth

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it obligatory for a father to perform Hajj for his children from his wealth, just as he provides for their maintenance?

Answer:
No, it is not obligatory for a father to perform Hajj for his children from his wealth. If they are able, they perform Hajj; if they are not able, then Hajj is not obligatory upon them.
