Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for me, when performing the rites of 'Umrah, to perform 'Umrah for my father and my mother at the same time?
Answer:
There is no harm in that if the Muslim performs 'Umrah for himself and wishes to perform it for his father and mother; there is nothing wrong with it. If they are deceased, or if they are unable due to old age, or due to an illness that is not expected to end, there is nothing wrong with performing 'Umrah on their behalf. In fact, it is prescribed, and indeed, performing 'Umrah and Hajj on their behalf is part of being dutiful to them.
So when he finishes his 'Umrah, he goes out to al-Tan'īm, or al-Ja'ranah, or 'Arafah, meaning: to the non-sacred area outside the Haram. He enters the state of ihram from there, then he performs tawaf and sa'y and shortens his hair with the intention of doing it on behalf of his mother, or his father, or someone else among the deceased, or those who are unable in a way that prevents them from performing Hajj and 'Umrah; due to old age, or due to an illness that is not expected to end. This is not limited to the parents; rather, if he performs 'Umrah on behalf of his brother, or his son, or his maternal uncle, or his paternal uncle, or his brother, or his Muslim friend; there is nothing wrong with it, if the person is deceased or unable in a way that prevents him from performing Hajj and 'Umrah; due to old age, or due to an illness that is not expected to end.
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered 'A'ishah to go to al-Tan'īm when she was in Makkah. He took her out to al-Tan'īm and she performed 'Umrah. This indicates that the one in Makkah, if he wants to perform 'Umrah, it is sufficient for him to go out to al-Tan'īm, or to another non-sacred area. He enters the state of ihram from there, and he recites the talbiyah for 'Umrah from there, and that is sufficient. As for the pilgrim performing Hajj, no, he enters the state of ihram from Makkah itself. For Hajj, one enters the state of ihram from Makkah itself and does not need to go out. Yes, if he is from the people of Makkah, or a resident there, yes.
