I performed Hajj when I was eighteen. Is it permissible for me to perform Hajj again as an individual?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Peace be upon you, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Peace and the mercy of Allah.

The questioner : May Allah keep you safe. May you live long.

The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe and in good health.

The questioner : Shaykh, I love you for the sake of Allah. May you live long.

The Shaykh : May Allah love you for the sake of which you loved us.

The questioner : May you live long. I have a question, may you live long. My question, Shaykh, may Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : Please proceed.

The questioner : I performed Hajj when I was young, may you live long.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : I was approximately eighteen years old. Yes, is that right?

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : I did not feel at ease about the Hajj at that time, meaning.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : So I do not know, may you live long, if I am entitled to perform Hajj a second time as an individual.

The Shaykh : Did you perform 'Umrah?

The questioner : Yes, may you live long. I performed it this Ramadan.

The Shaykh : Yes, that is fine. There is no harm in performing it as an individual. There is no obstacle.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : Yes, I say there is no harm in performing it as an individual.

The questioner : As an individual, yes. I perform Hajj as an individual, yes. And the days of Tashreeq, I spend them there, the three days.

The Shaykh : How do you spend them there, and how, meaning?

The questioner : Meaning, after the days of Tashreeq, may you live long, meaning after I throw the stones at the third pillar, on the third day of the sacrifice, I must spend them there in Mina, meaning, or the first two days if I hasten?

The Shaykh : If you throw the stones on the eleventh and the twelfth, then if you wish, you stay in Mina and throw the stones on the thirteenth, and if you wish, you hasten.

The questioner : Yes, yes.

The Shaykh : That Allah says
Then whoever hastens [his departure] in two days - there is no sin upon him; and whoever delays [until the third] - there is no sin upon him - for him who fears Allah.فَمَن تَعَجَّلَ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ فَلَا إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ وَمَن تَأَخَّرَ فَلَا إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ لِمَنِ اتَّقَىٰ
[Al-Baqarah 2:203]
, but staying is better,

The questioner : Yes, that is fine. And Tamattu' is better for the House, may you live long. One performs Tamattu' with 'Umrah.

The Shaykh : Tamattu' is better than Ifrad.

The questioner : Okay, may Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh : May Allah bless you.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : And you as well.
