Leaving one's pregnant wife and going for hajj

Q: 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?

A: 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.
