Hastening to perform hajj

· 9 Jumada I 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I am a 31 year old married woman. I want to perform hajj. My husband is not capable at present. I am asking him to arrange money for his hajj expenses only, and I am planning to sell my gold for my hajj expenses. Is it right to rush for the hajj even if we are not capable or should we wait for the time when we have enough. Please advise.

Answer

If you do not apprehend any difficulty etc. it is best to hasten the hajj.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
