Performing 'Umrah on behalf of deceased mothers and sisters in a single trip

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. My mother and my sisters have passed away. Is it permissible for me to perform 'Umrah on behalf of each of them in a single trip, so that I perform 'Umrah, then go out to the state of ihram and perform 'Umrah on behalf of the next one, and so on?

Answer:
This is permissible, but it is more complete and better if you dedicate a separate trip for each person's 'Umrah. Yes.
