Question

In the recent Hajj there was a Mujamala group created by Hajj agents I guess or someone else. However visas for Hajj were being sold at R 80 000 per visa and many bought these visas. Many went on business visas. Is this correct in shariah?

Answer

The 'mujamala' trick is haraam. The visas were procured in a haraam manner. This is obviously not permissible. Going for Hajj on business visas is permissible.
