The answer

It is permissible for a person to perform Hajj with money belonging to someone else, but he is not obligated to accept it, and he does not become "capable" (mustati') by it, according to the preponderant opinion. Borrowing for Hajj is not disliked if the borrower is able to repay. However, begging and accompanying people for Hajj relying on their expenses are disliked.
