'Umrah on behalf of one's parents or on behalf of oneself
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it better for a son to perform 'Umrah on behalf of his parents or on behalf of himself?
Answer:
If he has already performed the 'Umrah of Islam, there is nothing wrong with performing 'Umrah on behalf of his parents; in fact, it is recommended that he perform 'Umrah on behalf of his parents, because this is part of being dutiful to them. However, he should not combine them in a single 'Umrah; rather, each person should have their own 'Umrah.
