As questions arise about modern regulations related to Hajj, one sensitive issue stands out: what is the ruling on performing Hajj with a forged visa?

Visa Regulations in Hajj Organization

Dar Al-Ifta Al-Misriyyah explains that Hajj visas are regulatory measures designed to ensure order and public benefit, and compliance with them is religiously required.

Is Forging a Visa Permissible?

Forging a visa is strictly prohibited in Islamic law, as it violates both legal systems and ethical principles, even if the intention is to perform Hajj.

If One Knows About the Forgery

If a person knowingly performs Hajj using a forged visa:

• They are sinful
• They violate the law
• However, the Hajj itself remains valid if all rituals are properly performed

If One Is Unaware

If a person performs Hajj without knowing the visa is forged, there is no sin upon them, and their Hajj is hoped to be accepted by God.

Hajj Regulations as a Necessity

Modern regulations such as visas are considered necessary organizational tools, and compliance is required under the principle of obeying lawful authority.

Valid Worship vs. Sinful Means

While the pilgrimage may remain valid, the use of unlawful means introduces sin when done knowingly, highlighting the distinction between valid worship and prohibited actions.
