Question Summary:
Will The Obligations Of Hajj Be Fulfilled If Sponsored By One’s Employer?

Question Detail:

My question is regarding hajj. Me and my wife are working executives in companies with halal income. We are settled enough to go for hajj. This year in the hajj program by my company me and my wife name came out, which means all expenses paid by my company. Would all hajj obligation be fulfilled by company sponsored hajj, despite we have the means to do hajj ourselves?

If the company pays for the Hajj expenses, the Hajj would be valid
