Question
My husband owns a restaurant that sells wine and pork. I am a stay at home mother of 2 young children. I want to make Hajj, Inshallah in a couple of years. My husband said he would pay for my trip b ecause I have no source of income and I don't want anyone else to raise my children. Will it be accepted? What should I do? I know my childrenand I are young but age doesn't matter and I really need to make Hajj.Please help.
Answer
Praise be to Allah.We put the following question to Shaykh Abd-Allah ibn Jibreen:
Her husband sells wine and pork; is it permissible for her to take money from him to do the obligatory Hajj?
He answered, may Allah preserve him:
No it is not permissible, and she is to be considered as one of those who are not able (to go for Hajj).
