Question:
Is the obligation of Hajj immediate or deferred?
Answer:
The correct opinion among the scholars is that it is immediate. This is a rule regarding the commands of Allah: they are immediate, unless the evidence indicates deferral; otherwise, they are immediate. Therefore, Hajj is immediate, and prayer is immediate in its times, and fasting is immediate in its time as well. Likewise, if one is able, he does not delay, because Hajj has become obligatory upon him. The obligatory thing is to hasten to perform the obligatory duty.
