The sacrificial animal and the farewell tawaf for a resident of Makkah who performs Hajj on behalf of another

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I am a resident of Makkah, and I performed Hajj on behalf of a man from Riyadh. Do I have to offer a sacrificial animal? Because I am performing Hajj on his behalf as a mutamatti'. Also, do I have to perform the farewell tawaf? Because I am from Makkah, and he is from Riyadh. May you be rewarded with good.

The Shaykh:
You owe nothing, but if you slaughter a sacrificial animal, that is good. If you do not, and you performed 'Umrah on his behalf, as long as you performed Hajj on his behalf, you owe nothing, and you are from Makkah. But if you offer a sacrifice on his behalf, because you took on the 'Umrah in the months of Hajj with the intention of doing it for him, then if you offer a sacrifice on his behalf, that is good, if Allah wills. Yes.

The questioner:
Even if he is invited.

The Shaykh:
And regarding the farewell, he does not have to perform a farewell tawaf. The people of Makkah do not have to perform a farewell tawaf. Yes.
