Is it permissible for one who has performed 'Umrah for himself to go out to Tan'īm to perform another 'Umrah on behalf of someone else?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: A person came and performed 'Umrah for himself. Is it permissible for him to go out to Tan'īm and enter the state of ihram to perform 'Umrah on behalf of his mother or his father?

Answer:
This is permissible, but it is better for him to remain in al-Masjid al-Haram and pray in it, for one prayer there is worth one hundred thousand prayers. He should perform tawaf around the House, perform i'tikaf (spiritual retreat) in it, and sit with the people in i'tikaf around the mosque. This is better than performing 'Umrah. He should make du'a' (supplication) for his parents and for whomever he wishes.
