I am a student at university. I get a dependents grant . This does not have to be paid back and therefore no interest is involved. Is it okay if me and my wife go to hajj on this money.
Question
Since this is not earned money, will I get the full reward of a hajj.
Answer
If it is legal for you and your wife to use the money for hajj, then your?ll may perform hajj with that money. The hajj will be valid and rewarding Inshallah
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
