The answer

If a lease contract is made with an unknown rent, or an unknown benefit, or both, the worker is entitled to a fair wage (ajrat al-mithl). If a person agrees with a Hajj contractor on a known wage, then this agreement must be fulfilled. If they do not agree on a known wage, then he is entitled to a fair wage. A fair wage is also determined if they dispute the extent of the benefit, such as accommodation and transportation. This wage is determined by a Sharia judge or by experts and specialists, and both parties are obliged to accept their ruling. As for the Hajj, it is valid if the pilgrim performs its pillars, and it is not affected by being performed with ill-gotten money or money that has a dubious nature.
