Debtor Performing Pilgrimage
Is it obligatory to perform the pilgrimage if one is in debt?
Debtors may perform the pilgrimage if the creditor grants permission to delay repayment until after the pilgrimage. Generally, when a debt (whose amount exceeds the cost of pilgrimage and its related obligations, such as providing for one's family during one's pilgrimage) is outstanding, the pilgrimage is no longer obligatory, though its performance is still valid if performed with the creditors consent.
