Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Also, many questions have been repeated regarding repeating 'Umrah during Hajj. The questioner says: If I have completed my Hajj, is it permissible for me to perform 'Umrah on behalf of my deceased father and mother, and the like?
The Shaykh:
It is permissible, but performing 'Umrah from your country for the deceased or for a living person who is incapable is better. And if you perform 'Umrah after Hajj on behalf of any of your relatives you wish, there is no harm in that. Yes.
The questioner:
Is there a specific duration for performing 'Umrah after Hajj?
The Shaykh:
There is no specific duration, no specific duration for 'Umrah after Hajj. As soon as one finishes Hajj, he performs 'Umrah. This is because Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to let her perform 'Umrah after Hajj. So he sent her with her brother, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakr al-Siddiq, to al-Tan'im, the nearest of the open areas, the nearest boundary of the Haram. He sent her with him, and she entered the state of ihram from al-Tan'im and performed her 'Umrah. Yes.
