The ruling on performing Hajj with the money spent on one's parents
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A message was sent from the Arab Republic of Egypt by one of the listeners, Muhammad Hasan al-Mutawalli from Awlad Nasr, who says: I am a young married man, and I live with my wife and the family. I am currently working in one of the sister countries, and what I earn is for the entire family, my parents, and my siblings. Is it permissible for me to perform Hajj without my parents' permission, knowing that they have not performed Hajj yet? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
If their maintenance is your responsibility, and they are in need of this money, and there is no surplus from which you could perform Hajj, then they take precedence, and you are not able to perform Hajj. So, spend on them, and Hajj is not obligatory upon you until you are able to do so. However, if they have money and the ability to provide for themselves, and this is a matter of assisting them, then you must perform Hajj with this money that enables you to do so. You are the one who knows the reality best. Yes.
The presenter: And Allah is the Helper, may Allah reward you with good.
