My grandma wants me to pay for her Hajj.

Also, I don't care much what anyone else says or any books. If you can afford paying for your grandma and its no major trouble to you, you should do so as a good deed before she dies.

On Judgment day, you can blame me for it, and say I told you to do it. I'm happy to take the credit for an elderly person's hajj, and you should be too! Jump at the opportunity to do good if you're able and it doesn't cause destruction to yourself.

If you are Muslim, you follow the rules of the Shariah. Khalaas.
 
In the modern world you cannot do anything without using credit because it is so embedded into our systems.

Loans for education, for things that are good are not the same as loans for things which are themselves haram. It's totally different. The context is different.

If you feel stressed out just tell your grandmother that you are unable to pay for her hajj this year and perhaps you can save for next year. ان شاء الله

اللهُ knows best.

she can't pay for her hajj unless this lady has done hajj first.

But she can get a sponsor to pay for her grandmothers hajj :) it is charity.

Also, please tell me where it says you can't pay for someone else's hajj unless you have done it. I would like to know where it has been inscribed.
 
I told my grandma as soon as I pay off my student loan I'll save up for her Hajj. I don't plan on going to Hajj anytime soon so does that mean I can't send her to Hajj if I haven't went myself?

The shariah rules. Ask any scholar!

Yes. It is in the rules of the Shariah - if you haven't performed Hajj yourself then you cannot pay from someone else to go to Hajj. Please refer to a scholar who will outline it better for you.
 
I don't want a scholar. I want a verse on the Quran or the Hadith. Not the word of a scholar. :p


Hajj is obligatory upon the Muslim individual who is physically and financially capable without delay as clarified in Fatwa 87129. Thus, if you are physically and financially capable to perform Hajj, then you have to hasten to perform it without delay. This actually takes precedence over paying the expenses of the Hajj of someone else.

Question: Can one perform Umrah and Hajj on behalf of a dead person as well as living person? Are there any conditions as Hajj is to be performed by one’s own money so how can another person perform Hajj on behalf of someone else?

The answer is yes you can perform the Hajj on behalf of somebody else when that person is dead, on one condition that you yourself already have performed the Hajj, and the evidence for this is that:

Narrated by Abdullah ibn Abbas (RadiAllaahu Anhu): The Prophet :saws: heard a man saying, "Labbaik Allahumma 'An Shubrumah"; "Oh Allah here I am before your hands performing the Hajj on behalf of Shubrumah". So the Prophet (Peace and blessings be upon him) asked the man, "Did you perform the Hajj yourself first?" he said, "No". He (Peace and blessings be upon him) said "First of all perform the Hajj yourself, then you can make the Hajj on behalf of Shubrumah."
[Sunan Abu Dawood, Book 10, Hadith 1807]

See my post above.

Honestly, sometimes it's just common sense which so many people lack. SubhaanAllaah. If people bothered to look into their religion, everything is clear cut!

That is talking about her actually physically performing hajj. Nothing about her contributing to the performance of her grandmothers hajj with her hearings or with some of her money. :/

Also no it's not common sense because it's not clearly specified in the Quran or the Hadith. If it's not specified in either, it is fabricated and thus it is bidah that we follow "common sense" in Islam does not exist. Common sense exists in Muslim culture when we assume things we cannot find a proper source for. Or when evidence is weak. Such as this case.

Do you know what? Each to their own. Alhamdulillah I have firm belief and evidence of what I believe. You can do what you want, but don't misguide others! Jaahils...
 
Personally, I feel you emotions are being toyed.

Your grandma can't afford it AND NEITHER CAN YOU!

End of story.

:peace:

Your hadith is there. And instead of giving me negative reputation, LEARN ABOUT YOUR RELIGION and stop misguiding others!!!!
