Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man says: I performed 'Umrah with my father a few years ago. Yes, a man performed 'Umrah with his father a few years ago. When he started the 'Umrah and began the tawaf, he interrupted the 'Umrah because he had lost his father and was afraid for him due to his old age and weakness. He asks: What should he do now?

Answer:
Did he find his father or not? If he did not find his father and went looking for him without knowing where to find him, he remains in his ihram. There is no hardship on him; there is no hardship, and the 'Umrah is not missed. It is not like Hajj, which is missed. If he finds his father, he completes his 'Umrah. Yes.
