Question:
The questioner says: I am in i'tikaf in the mosque, and I have already performed 'Umrah for myself. I want to perform 'Umrah on behalf of my deceased grandmother. Is it permissible for me to go out to the miqat (the boundary at which ihram is entered) while I am in i'tikaf, considering that I am a resident here until two days after the festival? Please inform us. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
No, you do not leave the place of i'tikaf to come back with an 'Umrah. You remain in your place of i'tikaf until the period of i'tikaf ends. As for the 'Umrah, since you are a resident, you postpone it until after the festival. Yes.
