The questioner:
Abu 'Ali says: Shaykh, I want to perform 'Umrah for my father and my mother, and they have been dead for a long time. Do I enter ihram for one 'Umrah, or do I enter ihram for each person with a separate 'Umrah?
The Shaykh:
This is necessary. Two people do not share in one 'Umrah. You perform 'Umrah for two people, or Hajj for two people. No, Hajj and 'Umrah on behalf of others is only for one person.
The questioner:
How does he go out for the second 'Umrah for his father if he took me for his mother?
The Shaykh:
If he comes a second time, he enters ihram for his mother. Yes.
