لَوْ أَنَّ النَّاسَ تَرَكُوا الْحَجَّ لَكَانَ عَلَى الْوَالِي أَنْ يُجْبِرَهُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَ عَلَى الْمُقَامِ عِنْدَهُ وَ لَوْ تَرَكُوا زِيَارَةَ النَّبِيِّ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) لَكَانَ عَلَى الْوَالِي أَنْ يُجْبِرَهُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَ عَلَى الْمُقَامِ عِنْدَهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمْ أَمْوَالٌ أَنْفَقَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ بَيْتِ مَالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hafs Bin Bakhtary, and Hisham Bin Salim, and Muawiya Bin Ammar, and others, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘If the people neglect the Hajj, it would be upon the governor that he compels them upon that, and upon the staying with it; and if they were to neglect the visitation of the Prophet<sup>saw</sup> (the Holy Shrine in Medina) it would be upon the governor that he compels them upon that, and upon the staying with it. So if they do not happen to have the wealth for them, he should spend from the Public Treasury of the Muslims’.
