    Question ID: 5698Country: India

    Title: I wish to take my mother and wife for HAJJ . But I have some business problems and creditors to pay ( I am writing my problems below in detail) so I am not sure if MY HAJJ WILL BE IN ORDER . I am doing business in the family but due to some disputes our business is on closure and we have bank interest and creditors to pay. I want to settle all the creditors by selling our land to avoid the WRATH OF ALLAH SUBHANAHO TAALAH , but my other associates are not ready for this. As we are all blaming each other for the problems and nobody is interested in settling the business creditors / bank as they all want some money for themselves before they are ready to settle the accounts. The situation is not improving and I want to take my mother and wife for HAJJ with my own personal busines money . Can you please advice, in the light of the Shariat , am I allowed to perform the HAJJ in this situation and will it be in order ? May Allah give you the JAZAA for helping me in this matter.

    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    If you take your wife and mother for hajj with your own personal business money then it is lawful.

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
