May Allah reward you with good. This questioner says: I have a brother who is deaf and mute. Is it permissible for me to perform 'Umrah on his behalf, or Hajj on his behalf?

The deaf and mute person performs Hajj and 'Umrah himself, even if he does not speak or hear. He performs tawaf, sa'y, and shaves or shortens his hair, and carries out the rites. Hearing and speaking are not conditions. Yes.
