Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Your Eminence! Some guardians prevent their dependents from traveling to perform the obligatory Hajj. Do they sin by doing so? And what is your guidance for these guardians?And he followed with a brief comment on the child's question: You mentioned that the vomit of a child is pure. Is there a condition if the child is eating food or not eating food?
There is no condition. There is no evidence that the vomit of a small child or an adult is ritually impure.
Regarding the guardians who prevent their dependents from performing the obligatory Hajj, if it was stipulated in the contract that they must enable the worker to perform the obligation, then it is obligatory for them to grant him permission. If it was not stipulated, then they have the right to do so; because the hired worker does not have the right to leave the one who hired him or anyone else.Then we say to this man who is a dependent: There is no blame on you in this case; because you are unable to do so.
But I advise our brothers the guardians: That they should treat these dependents well by enabling them to perform Hajj, and perhaps this will be a cause of blessing in their production; because these workers may not have the opportunity to come to this country again.So my advice is: That these guardians should treat their dependents well, and then give them good news that if they help this person in performing Hajj, they will be like the one who performed Hajj in reward.By the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): (Whoever equips a warrior has gone on a jihad) and likewise, whoever equips a pilgrim has a reward like his.
