Q 10: is it permissible for someone to send their parents to Hajj before they go on Hajj themselves?


A: Hajj is obligatory on every Muslim who is free, sane, adult, and able to do it, once in a lifetime. (Part No. 11; Page No. 71) Dutifulness to parents and helping them to perform obligations is something that is prescribed by the Shari‘ah (Islamic law), as far as one can. However, you should perform Hajj yourself first and then help your parents, if it is not possible that all of you perform Hajj together. But if you give precedence to your parents over yourself, their Hajj will still be valid.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
