How to go to Hajj when I have children?

Q :->I have some questions regarding my children.
I wanted to keep them in an Islamic boarding schooland perform hajj
after enrolling them in one but as i am residing in nagpur i could not
find one. so what should i do?
Second, I have 17 tolas of gold which was given to me in marriage and
i am due on zakaat for past 8 years. What to do regarding this?
Please help. khuda hafiz.
A :-> Sister, if you have your Mahram who is taking youfor the Hajj,
then ask him to convince his relatives tokeep your children with them
until you return from the Hajj. Else you can do so with your
relatives, and insha Allah, they won't deny this.
Moreover, it is best if you can take your children with you on Hajj.
But if you plan to go on Hajj without a Mahram, then it is not allowed
for you to do so. You can not go for Hajj, without a Mahram.
As for he who did not offer
the obligatory zakah, it is
necessary for a repentant to
Pay them for all previous unpaid years, for it is, fromone angle,
Allah's right, while from another, the poor people's right. (See
Madaarij Al-Salikin for further details).
