I am Dubai resident and doing job in dubai, UAE. I am unable to go for hajj from Dubai because its too expensive from here. But I have enough money to go to perform Hajj from Pakistan. Is it necessary for me go for Hajj this year as my wife is also expected to have 7 month pregnancy at the time of Hajj. Please answer JazakAllah Khair
Answer
(Fatwa: 977/873=L/1430)
Once hajj has become fardh, it is sin to delay in performing the same. Therefore, if hajj is fardh upon you, you must not delay it. If you want to take your wife with you, you can take her with you second time in-sha-Allah, but you should not postpone your fardh hajj due to wife.
