The Ruling on Borrowing Money to Perform 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it prescribed to go on 'Umrah, or to perform 'Umrah, by means of debt?
Answer:
No. You do not borrow money to perform 'Umrah. You do not borrow money to perform 'Umrah. But if someone donates to you and spends on you, and you go with him, there is nothing wrong with that. As for you borrowing, that is a burden that Allah has not commanded.
