And the performance of both by a child or a slave is voluntary

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : He said "And the performance of both by a child or a slave is voluntary" meaning that it is valid for a child to perform Hajj and 'Umrah, but it is voluntary. This is because one of the conditions for fulfilling the obligation is reaching puberty; it does not fulfill the obligatory duty until he reaches puberty. Therefore, if he performs Hajj while he is a minor, the Hajj is voluntary for him and not obligatory.
