If the one who is able to perform Hajj delays it until he becomes poor, what is required of him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you. A person who was able to perform Hajj with his wealth and body, but he delayed it until he became poor and was no longer able, and then he regretted it greatly. Now he asks: What is required of him?

The Shaykh : He has to perform Hajj when he is able. Hajj is now established in his liability. Hajj is established in his liability, and he will be punished for its delay.

The questioner : And if he is not able.

The Shaykh : If he is not able
Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity لا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْساً إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا
[Al-Baqarah 2:286]
, but he will be punished for the delay.

The questioner : Meaning, even if he regrets and repents.

The Shaykh : Even if he regrets and repents, even if he regrets and repents, this is what appears. But if he regrets and repents, we hope that Allah will forgive him.
