I am disabled and need my brother to accompany me for Umrah. I am in the U.S.,he is in Yemen, is it a must that I pay for his ticket and expenses for Umrah?

Thank you, Jazakum Allah Khairan

Answer:

It is not a prerequisite for the validity of Umrah that you finance your brother`s expenses. You may finance your brother`s expenses if you wish.
