The Case of One Who Borrows to Perform al-Hajj

5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn Wahab from more than one person who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the debt that I owe and I have a certain amount of dirham, which if I divide among the creditors, not anything will be left for al-Hajj expenses. He (the Imam) said, ‘Perform al-Hajj with it and appeal before Allah to pay off your debts.’”
