Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 1165 — The virtue of the one in ihram

Imam al-Humaydi (may Allah have mercy on him) relates that Sufyan narrated to us, narrating from Muhammad bin Suqah, that the eminent Successor Ibn al-Munkadir (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked: "Do you attain the blessing of Hajj even in a state where the burden of debt is upon you?" He replied: "Hajj is far more helpful and supportive (than other means) in paying off debt."
The commentators of hadith say in explaining this statement that Hajj performed with sincerity removes poverty, and by its blessing Allah Almighty opens unseen ways for the servant to pay off his debt.
