Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Sultan from Riyadh, please, Sultan. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. Peace be upon you. May Allah keep you safe. The first question, may Allah keep you safe. I went to Makkah for 'Umrah, may you live long, and I intended the 'Umrah for myself, and I will stay for more than a week, and I will perform a second 'Umrah for my deceased brother. That is the first question. Okay, the Shaykh will answer in a moment. The first one, may you live long, but I did not complete the second 'Umrah.
Answer:
There is no harm in performing the 'Umrah for yourself and then going out to al-Tan'īm or al-Ja'ranah and entering the state of ihram for 'Umrah on behalf of someone else, as a way of donating the reward to him. There is no harm in that. However, one must complete the 'Umrah; if one enters the state of ihram for it, one must complete it. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Baqarah 2:196] One does not exit the state of ihram except by doing so, except in the case of the one who is prevented (muhasar), who is prevented from reaching the House. He exits the state of ihram and pays the ransom, [Al-Baqarah 2:196]. Yes.

And complete the Hajj and 'umrah for Allah
وَأَتِمُّوا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ لِلَّهِBut if you are prevented, then [offer] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals
فَإِنْ أُحْصِرْتُمْ فَمَا اسْتَيْسَرَ مِنَ الْهَدْيِ
