Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If I performed 'Umrah for myself, then went out to the non-sacred area (al-Hal) and performed 'Umrah on behalf of a deceased relative of mine, and I had not yet taken off my ihram clothes, is my action valid?
Answer:
They express disapproval of a person leaving the Haram to perform 'Umrah from the non-sacred area. Is staying in the Haram, in the Sacred Mosque, better than 'Umrah? Better than 'Umrah, yes.
