Is it permissible to perform Hajj with money taken from one's wife, with her consent, to cover the remaining Hajj expenses?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The money for Hajj must be lawful and pure, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, Allah is pure and does not accept anything but what is pure." The wealth of another is not permissible unless given with their willing consent, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The wealth of a Muslim person is not lawful except with his willing consent." Therefore, if your wife allows you a portion of her money to complete the expenses for Hajj, there is no blame upon you.
