Ruling on performing 'Umrah on behalf of one's father in Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, is it permissible to perform 'Umrah in Ramadan on my behalf and on behalf of my father?

Answer:
There is no harm in each person doing it for himself separately. You may perform it for yourself alone, then perform 'Umrah on behalf of your father, or vice versa. If you have already performed 'Umrah for Islam, you may perform 'Umrah on behalf of yourself, your father, and your mother. The matter is broad, and praise be to Allah. Each person is independent; one does not combine two people in one 'Umrah, nor two people in one Hajj. The matter is that one is independent for one person, and the Hajj is independent. So if he performs 'Umrah for himself, then enters the state of ihram afterwards from al-Tan'īm, or from 'Arafah, or from al-Ja'ranah outside the Haram, and performs 'Umrah on behalf of another, yes.
