ChrisWebbTechthanks for the reply.. in the official MS documentations, they mentioned the following:-

When prompted with Principals[0], ........ If you want all site collection administrators in the organization to be able to associate their sites with the hub, press Enter at the first prompt.

and as per my knowledge, if an end user create his own modern team site, then this end user will be the site admin of the modern team site, is this correct? so he should be able to associate his modern team site with the above hub??

    ChrisWebbTech now to be more specific, on the end user modern team site collection, the "site collections" include the "site owner" group.. and the "site owner" group already contain the end user... so this mean the end user is a site administration...
