Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
My wife wants to perform the obligatory Hajj with her family, and she is pregnant. I have prevented her from doing so. Is there a sin on me for this?
Answer:
If it is an obligatory Hajj, it is not permissible to prevent her. As for a voluntary Hajj, you may prevent her. But for the obligatory Hajj, you must not prevent her. She should not crowd in during the tawaf or the stoning of the pillars. She should perform the tawaf at suitable times, and for the stoning of the pillars, she should appoint someone to stone on her behalf. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
