Question:
The hadith of Ahmad: Does this mean the obligatory Hajj?
Answer:
In its chain of narration, there is a man named Isma'il ibn Khalifah, and the Hafiz said of him that he has poor memory. However, the reliance is on other evidence; the reliance is on the noble verse: [Al-Imran: 97], and the hadith: Bulugh al-Maram 720. This is clear: the command is for immediate performance. This is the principle: commands are for immediate performance unless evidence indicates a delay.

إنَّ الله كتب عليكم الحجَّ فحجُّوا
