What is the validity of the Hajj of one who performed it with money from selling cigarettes, knowing that selling cigarettes does not constitute all of his trade?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Consuming unlawful wealth is a grave danger, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "O people, Allah is good and accepts only what is good." And he mentioned a man whose "food was unlawful, his drink was unlawful, his clothing was unlawful, and he was nourished with unlawful things, so how can his supplication be answered?" The preponderant opinion is that performing Hajj with wealth mixed with unlawful money is valid, and this is the view of the majority of scholars.
