Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Is it permissible to perform tawaf for a deceased person and dedicate it to them, as is called the seven?

Answer:
There is no evidence for this. It was only reported regarding the entire ritual of Hajj, where the evidence relies on performing it on behalf of someone or performing Hajj on their behalf. As for a standalone tawaf, there is no evidence reported for it. Yes.
