Is it جائز to fund الحج with money from interest (riba)?

It is not جائز to intentionally earn interest and then use it for الحج. Interest (riba) is among the most severely prohibited matters in Islam. Allah says: 'Allah has permitted trade and محرم interest' (Al-Baqarah 2:275). However, if a person has already received interest without seeking it (such as from a conventional bank account), scholars advise donating it to the poor rather than using it for personal benefit. الشيخ ابن باز stated: 'الحج must be funded from lawful (halal) earnings. النبي (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said: Allah is pure and accepts only what is pure (صحيح مسلم 1015).'
