Meeting one's relatives before going for hajj

Q: My sister and brother in law are going for Haj this year Alhamdulillah. Is it necessary for them to go to each and every relative and make maaf and say they are going for Haj. People have told them that they need to do that before they leave otherwise Allah will not accept their Haj.

A: No, it is not necessary.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
