Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible to perform 'Umrah for my father while I am in the Haram?
Answer:
It is permissible. You may go out to the non-sacred area and enter the state of ihram for 'Umrah. However, it is better that you do not go out and remain in al-Masjid al-Haram to pray in it, perform i'tikaf (spiritual retreat), perform tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah), remember Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and recite the Qur'an. This is better than performing 'Umrah. Yes.
