Question:
The questioner says: May Allah reward you. Is it permissible for me to perform 'Umrah on behalf of my deceased father? And from where do I enter the state of ihram for 'Umrah, given that I am currently residing in Makkah? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
It is permissible for you to perform 'Umrah on behalf of your father, provided that you have already performed 'Umrah for yourself. In Islam, it is permissible to perform 'Umrah on behalf of your father. If you are in Makkah, you must go out to al-Hill, to at-Tan'im, to al-Ja'ranah, or to 'Arafah. You enter the state of ihram from al-Hill, from outside the boundary, and then you come back and perform the 'Umrah.
