If you can afford it, go for hajj immediately. If you can afford it but then go for Umrah instead,** and then die in an accident or of a medical problem shortly after returning, you’ll be in a position where you died having committed the sin of not going for hajj though you could afford it **(evidence of being able to afford it being the ability to pay for umrah).

I think you should leave your kids behind. My brother and I were of similar and younger age to your eldest when my parents went for hajj - even though my family lived just 2 hours from Mecca at the time and it would have been easy to bring us, they still didn’t want the distraction of having children with them at the time. We were left with a relative.

Are you serious ?
