The safety of the travel path to the land of revelation, Mecca, for the practices of Hajj is one of the most important issues in fiqh. Considering the obligation of Hajj and the importance of continuing to keep the Ka’ba as a host for throngs of pilgrims, the issue of possessing or providing the ability regarding the travel path as a condition of the obligation of Hajj for those who are obliged to perform it is not yet so clear; thus, the nature of the ability regarding the travel path if unsafety of pilgrims leads to the cancelation of Hajj from the viewpoint of the fiqh of Islamic sects is a question that needs to be answered properly. Unsafety of pilgrims in the land of revelation and their path to it to perform the rituals of Hajj leads to the lack of ability regarding the travel path for those who are obliged to perform Hajj, and consequently, arises the obligation from them. If this results in the cancelation of Hajj for all Muslims, then it is up to the Islamic ruler to make arrangements for the Hajj rituals to be performed. This study, aimed at identifying the limits and conditions of the arguments for the ability regarding the travel path and its effect on the cancelation of Hajj in light of the description and analysis of the propositions of the fiqh of Islamic sects, was done using library data in a comparative manner, the result of which is that Hajj is not obliged if there is unsafety in the land of revelation and the travel path to it.
