The Ruling on Offering the Tawaf on Behalf of a Deceased Person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible to offer the tawaf on behalf of a deceased person, considering it is a part and pillar of the pillars of Hajj and 'Umrah?

Answer:
People do it, and the jurists mentioned that it is permissible, but no evidence has come regarding it. The best thing is that you perform tawaf for yourself and make du'a for the deceased. You perform tawaf for yourself and make du'a for yourself and for the deceased; this is the best. Yes.
