Leaving one's pregnant wife and going for hajj
Question
If my wife is pregnant and is due to give birth during the hajj time while I am away, can I still go for hajj leaving her alone?
Answer
If they are reasonably good women to take care of her in your absence, then you should go for Hajj.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
