Hadith 936
Hadith.2503 - Mu‘awiyah ibn Ammar asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who has debt: "Is he obligated to perform Hajj?" Imam (as) replied: "Yes, the Hajj of Islam is obligatory upon those Muslims who can walk. Indeed, most of those who performed Hajj with the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace of Allah (swt) be upon him and his family) were on foot. The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings of Allah (swt) be upon him and his family) passed by Kura‘ al-Ghamim, and the people complained to him about their exhaustion, fatigue, and weakness. Prophet (sw) said: 'Tighten your belts and bind your stomachs.' They did so, and their fatigue and hardship disappeared."
2503 - وَ سَأَلَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ أَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَحُجَّ قَالَ
«نَعَمْ إِنَّ حَجَّةَ اَلْإِسْلاَمِ وَاجِبَةٌ عَلَى مَنْ أَطَاقَ اَلْمَشْيَ مِنَ اَلْمُسْلِمِينَ وَ لَقَدْ كَانَ أَكْثَرُ مَنْ حَجَّ مَعَ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ مُشَاةً وَ لَقَدْ مَرَّ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ بِكُرَاعِ اَلْغَمِيمِ فَشَكَوْا إِلَيْهِ اَلْجَهْدَ وَ اَلطَّاقَةَ وَ اَلْإِعْيَاءَ فَقَالَ «شُدُّوا أُزُرَكُمْ وَ اِسْتَبْطِنُوا» فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ فَذَهَبَ ذَلِكَ عَنْهُمْ».

Hadith 937
Hadith.2504 - Ali ibn Abi Hamzah narrated from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdullah (as), who said
I asked him about the verse of Allah (swt), the Exalted: "And [due] to Allah (swt) from the people is a pilgrimage to the House—whoever is able to find thereto a way" (Surah Aal-E-Imran 3:97). Imam (as) replied: "He should set out on foot if he has nothing." I said: "What if he cannot walk?" Imam (as) said: "Then he should walk and ride." I said: "What if he cannot do that either?" Imam (as) said: "Then he should serve the group and set out with them."
2504 - وَ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لَهُ قَوْلُ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ: «۝ وَ لِلّٰهِ عَلَى اَلنّٰاسِ حِجُّ اَلْبَيْتِ مَنِ اِسْتَطٰاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلاً ۝» قَالَ «يَخْرُجُ يَمْشِي إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُ شَيْءٌ» قُلْتُ لاَ يَقْدِرُ عَلَى اَلْمَشْيِ قَالَ «يَمْشِي وَ يَرْكَبُ» قُلْتُ لاَ يَقْدِرُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ «يَخْدُمُ اَلْقَوْمَ وَ يَخْرُجُ مَعَهُمْ».
