Hajj Is Obligatory Once — Do Not Burden Yourself Beyond That
أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ فَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمُ الْحَجَّ فَحُجُّوا فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ أَكُلَّ عَامٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَسَكَتَ حَتَّى قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا فَقَالَ لَوْ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ لَوَجَبَتْ وَلَمَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ

Translation
Narrated Abu Hurayrah (RA): The Prophet (SAW) said, 'O people, Allah has made Hajj obligatory for you, so perform it.' A man said, 'Every year, O Messenger of Allah?' He remained silent until he asked three times, then said, 'If I had said yes, it would become obligatory and you would not be able to do it.'
