Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy.
The Shaykh : Peace and the mercy of Allah.
The questioner : And by Allah, O Shaykh, I bought a piece of land and paid half of its value. O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Yes. I say I bought a piece of land and paid half of its value. Yes. And the other half remains on me. Yes. So I did not pay the other half and I did not receive the legal deed. Hmm? I did not pay the half and I did not receive the legal deed. Yes. So is it obligatory for me to perform Hajj or not? Hmm? Yes.
The questioner : I mean, will I have two debts?
The Shaykh : Years or zakat?
The questioner : Hello.
The Shaykh : You are asking about the debt, and what is the debt?
The questioner : The debt is that I paid half of the value of the land.
The Shaykh : You paid the half, and you have to pay the other half.
The questioner : Of course.

The questioner : So is this considered a debt?
The Shaykh : The remaining half.

The Shaykh : The remaining half, you mean.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes, the remaining half, is there a debt?
The questioner : Fine, but I did not receive the deed.
The Shaykh : Yes, and even if I had received the deed and given them the money.
The questioner : Okay, and okay, do I perform Hajj or not?
The Shaykh : Does the land that you bought equal the debt or not?
The questioner : Hello.
The Shaykh : Does the land that you bought cover the debt?
The questioner : The land that you bought.
The Shaykh : Does it cover the remaining debt or not?
