Making
Hajj with haraam money
*Please appropriately reference this
fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: What is the ruling regarding someone
who performed Hajj with money which was haram, i.e. from the
profits of selling (illegal) drugs. Then sending tickets for
Hajj to his parents and they perform Hajj, knowing that this
money has been gathered from the sale of (illegal) drugs.
Is this Hajj acceptable or not?
Response:
The performance of Hajj with money which is haram does not
prevent the Hajj from being correct, but with sin in accordance
with the haram profits and a reduction in the reward for the
Hajj. But it does not invalidate it.
And
with Allaah lies all the success, and may Allaah send prayers
and salutations upon our Prophet Muhammad (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam)
and his family and his companions.
