Question: It is every Muslim's dream to go on Hajj/Umrah as this is one of the 5 pillars of Islam. I am financially unable to go, but someone wants to sponsor me. The problem is: my husband will not let me go. His reason, we have to go together and there is a time for everything. What if I die before that time comes? Should I disobey him and go on Hajj 'Umrah? One sister told me (based on what she learned) that I should go and perform Hajj 'Umrah. I know that I have to put Allah first in my life. Assuming, I disobeyed my husband and went for Hajj 'Umrah. Before going to Makkah, I must straighten myself up in everything. How about me? Before going for Hajj and upon returning home - my husband and I will have a misunderstanding. Please advise. I have a complete family and happily married life.

Fatwa: All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.
