What is the advice and guidance for the one who delays Hajj until he grows old and his strength weakens, and he becomes unable to move?

The questioner:
May Allah reward you with good and do you good. Shaykh Salih, it is observed that some pilgrims leave off performing the obligatory Hajj until they reach a certain age, and some of them even reach a stage of inability to move. Is there any guidance? May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh:
Whoever is able to perform the obligatory Hajj, it is obligatory for him to hasten to perform it, because he does not know what may befall him. We seek help from Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) urged hastening in performing Hajj. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Hasten to this Hajj," meaning the obligatory one. For this reason, the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) said that Hajj is obligatory immediately for the one who is able.

The presenter:
Good, good.

The Shaykh:
It is obligatory immediately for the one who is able to perform it, and it is not permissible to delay it except for a valid religious excuse. So these people who are lazy about performing Hajj until they reach an age where they may not be able to perform it, they have been negligent; they have been negligent in one of the pillars of Islam. Indeed, we have heard that some of them postpone Hajj until they have satisfied their desires and whatever they want from the adornments of this world, even if it is forbidden, and then they conclude with Hajj, because they claim that Hajj expiates all the major and minor sins and ugly deeds that have passed. This is great ignorance; this is from great ignorance. Yes.
