The answer

Dealing with an Islamic bank for financing Umrah or Hajj services by installments is permissible, provided that the bank purchases the service from a travel agency and then sells it to you at an installment price with a profit. One should not seek the expense of Umrah or Hajj by incurring debt. However, there is no harm in accepting a benevolent loan (qard hasan) or a legitimate financing transaction to perform the rituals for those who are able to repay.
