And I ask for prayers from the BTT Forum which I respect so that my mother's dream of performing the Hajj can come true.
I am religious but I don't see visiting the so-called Holy Land as something paramount to me. When the government of my country allocate millions of dollars to sponsor these pilgrimages, I see it as a waste of funds. The money could be used to engage in development programmes in the country. For me, I don't think I will ever save because I want to engage in religious obligations like pilgrimage. I would prefer to give the money to charity than to go for such an adventure.
Please forgive my bluntness, who am I to dictate what you or your mother want to do with Bitcoin investment? Everybody has priorities and will have to achieve the needs at the top of the scale of preference. Since performing the Hajj is your mother's desire, I wish you all the best of luck. It is good you are using the DCA strategy and your plan is long-term (10 years). If you continue hodling, hopefully, the money to finance her pilgrimage will be available in eight years. I pray your mother gets all the spiritual benefits that the Hajj brings.
Thank you, in my religion Islam, performing the Hajj is an obligation and whatever the reasons and goals of the government, this is the 5th pillar of Islam which must be done with conditions, if able.
And I appreciate that you prioritize alms rather than the obligation to perform the Hajj, and your goal is in the 3rd pillar of Islam which most likely everyone can do.
And the investment I make is not only for the Hajj, but as I have said many times above, apart from the Hajj, for my mother's future or old age.
