Chapter on a Man Borrowing to Perform Hajj and the Obligation of Hajj on Someone in Debt

1138. hadíth

وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ يَسْتَقْرِضُ وَ يَحُجُّ قَالَ «إِنْ كَانَ لَهُ وَجْهٌ فِي مَالٍ فَلاَ بَأْسَ.

It was narrated from Abdul-Malik ibn Utbah, who said: I asked Abu al-Hasan (a.s) about a man who has debt but borrows money to perform Hajj. Imam (a.s) said: "If he has a means to repay the debt, there is no harm in it."
