Question:
Is it permissible for me to perform tawaf and sa'y on behalf of someone else?
Answer:
No. Voluntary tawaf, performing tawaf on behalf of someone as a voluntary act, there is scholarly disagreement regarding this. As for sa'y, there is no voluntary sa'y; sa'y is only obligatory sa'y, and there is no voluntary aspect to it. As for tawaf, it is valid for you and for others on your behalf if it is voluntary, because it is a physical act. It is only for the one performing the tawaf. It is a physical act like prayer; no one prays on behalf of another, and there is no evidence. They say there is no evidence that you perform tawaf for someone as a voluntary tawaf. Yes.
