Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This person asks, saying: I want to perform a voluntary tawaf with the intention of doing it for my father, knowing that he is deceased. Is this act valid? And is it permissible for me to perform this tawaf?
Answer:
This is a matter of scholarly disagreement, but there is no disagreement on the fact that you may perform Hajj or 'Umrah on his behalf. That is the point on which there is no disagreement, and it is more complete and better. Yes.
