Hajj is immediately obligatory for the one who is able, and this is the most preponderant opinion among scholars. Therefore, one must hasten to perform the Hajj obligation if it is the Hajj al-Islam, because a person does not know if it will be facilitated for him in the future. The presence of children does not prevent one from performing Hajj, as the predecessors of the Ummah performed Hajj with their children, and it is authentically reported in a that a woman raised a boy to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and asked him: "Is there Hajj for this one?" He said: "Yes, and for you is a reward."
