وَكَانَ الْفُضَيْل بْن عِيَاض يَقُول : يَا كَذَّاب يَا مُفْتَرٍ , اِتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَلَا تَسُبَّ الشَّيْطَان فِي الْعَلَانِيَة وَأَنْتَ صَدِيقُهُ فِي السِّرّ

  Hajj, 'Umrah and Swine Flu
Shaykh Saalih ibn Fowzaan al-Fowzaan
[Reference: Explanation of the Book of Eemaan: 18- 8-1430 H]


May Allaah reward you, a questioner is asking about the ruling of leaving off an
act of worship that one regularly practices fearing swine flu, such as a person
who regularly used to perform 'Umrah during Ramadaan?

There is no harm if you fear catching a contagious disease, the Prophet - ‎‎‎
‎‎‎‎ ‎‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ - ordered people not to enter a land that has an epidemic, nor
to exit from it [if one is in it]. So if a disease spreads in a certain country,
one should not travel from that country so as not to spread that disease, nor
should a person travel to the country that has that disease, acting upon taking
the causes, and this is a form of protection.

So there is no harm in doing so, if it is established that there is a disease in
the country during Hajj or 'Umrah ‎ if it is established that there is a
contagious disease there, then do not travel. Delay your Hajj or 'Umrah to a
later time. So there is no problem in doing so, this is a way of protecting
oneself, Yes.
