Frequently asked questions

Can I do Umrah for my deceased father or mother?

Yes. According to the religious sources set out on our evidence page, an Umrah can be performed on behalf of a Muslim parent who has passed away, whether or not they performed Umrah in their lifetime. Each Umrah is dedicated to one person: for both parents, plan one for each.

Can Umrah be done on behalf of someone who is still alive?

Yes, if a Muslim is permanently unable to travel because of illness, disability or old age. A temporary difficulty is not enough: the person should wait and perform their own Umrah once they recover.

Who performs the Umrah, and must they have done their own first?

An Islamic sciences student in Makkah who has already performed his own Umrah. This condition comes from the hadith of Shubrumah (Abu Dawud 1811, graded sahih by Al-Albani).

How is the deceased person named during the Umrah?

When entering ihram, the person performing the Umrah names the deceased in the Talbiyah: "Labbayka ’an [name]" ("Here I am, on behalf of [name]"). The name is spoken in the video you receive.
