Boycotting a son who delays performing the obligatory Hajj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: My brother is wealthy and has reached the age of fifty, yet he delays performing the obligatory Hajj. He asks: What is my duty, and what is my mother's duty toward him? He adds that he will perform the Hajj if my mother boycotts him. So, is it obligatory for my mother to boycott him for this reason?
Answer:
If the boycott affects him, yes, she should boycott him, because he has wronged himself by delaying the Hajj without an excuse. Yes.
