However, if one decides to go to Hajj but does not have the means (to do so) and goes to Ḥusain (a.s.) instead, Allāh will register a Hajj for him. (Similarly) if someone decides to perform an ‘Umrah but does not have the means (to do so and goes to Ḥusain (a.s.) instead), an ‘Umrah will be registered for him.
