Should one purchase a car or save up for Hajj?
Q: I sold my car two years ago.
I have saved money.
After looking at the price of second hand cars and the age of vehicles available, I took mashwara from a senior aalim and decided to take a loan for one year and buy a new car. The car is not cheap but cars are quite costly. So it's the second from an entry level.
I intend purchasing the car in the next few weeks.
I then went onto the hajj portal and it showed my name will come for the next hajj. When I had checked in July and I contacted sahuc, they said two years.
I would like to know, am I not allowed to buy the car because I will be in debt and in no position to go for hajj when the time of hajj dawns. I will be paying the car till the end of 2025.
The second issue is I am using the car from work and my boss is not a stable person so I fear that he's going to make an issue of me using the work car for such a long period
I have also had an option to get the car slightly cheaper but there was a waiting period so because of my boss I decided let me rather buy it now.

Q: Is it permissible for a person who is accredited for Hajj, and has both the means and opportunity to fulfill their Fardh Hajj, to delay it as he is concerned that their income may not be completely halaal?
