The ruling on one who performs Hajj while owing an oath expiation?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good. The last question is from our sister Umm 'Abd al-Rahman from Bahrain. She says: If a person swears an oath, he owes an oath expiation, as we have heard from the honorable scholars. Her question is: If this person wants to perform Hajj, should he pay the oath expiation before going to perform Hajj? Or is there no connection between the two? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The oath expiation is a debt in his liability to Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. So for him to pay this debt and clear his liability is better for him. This is with the capacity of wealth and with affluence.
As for the case where the expiation for an oath would strain the funds for Hajj, he should prioritize the expiation for the oath. If the expiation conflicts with the cost of Hajj, he should prioritize the expiation for the oath, because it is a debt owed to Allah the Exalted. Hajj is only obligatory if he has money that exceeds what is needed to pay off his debts, and exceeds his needs and the maintenance of his family, from his departure until his return. Allah the Exalted said: The way refers to the provisions and the mount, meaning the riding animal, at all times. So if he has money that exceeds his expenses, his basic needs, and the settlement of his debts, then Hajj becomes obligatory for him. If he does not have any of that, then Hajj is not obligatory for him. Yes.
