Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also, among the questions that came in, this questioner says: What is the meaning of saying "Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik"?

Answer:
Yes, the talbiyah means responding. "Labbaik" means responding. His saying "Labbaik" means a response after a response; they are responding to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), who commanded them to perform Hajj and 'Umrah by His saying in the call of Ibrahim (peace be upon him):
And proclaim to the people the Hajjوَأَذِّن فِي النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ
[Al-Hajj 22:27]
When Ibrahim (peace be upon him) said, "O people, indeed Allah has prescribed for you Hajj, so perform Hajj," every person who comes as a pilgrim is responding to the call of Ibrahim (peace and blessings be upon him) by the command of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.

May Allah reward you
