Hajj & Umrah Badal in Details
Millions of Muslims want to fulfil Umrah or Hajj on behalf of a loved one but cannot make the journey themselves because the person has passed away, is too elderly or unwell to travel, or simply lives too far away. Badal Umrah and Badal Hajj exist for exactly this situation: a certified scholar based in Makkah performs the pilgrimage in that person’s name, and the full spiritual reward is transferred to them.
Every booking in this category is carried out by a scholar who lives full-time in Makkah, not a one-time worker arranged for a single trip. We film each performance in HD from start to finish, so you receive genuine video proof of the Tawaf and Sa’i being completed, along with a digital certificate. We deliver this within 72 hours of the performance, with no hidden fees at checkout.

Only a sane, adult Muslim who has already completed their own Umrah and, for Badal Hajj, their own Hajj as well can perform it on someone else’s behalf, since a person can’t transfer worship they haven’t completed themselves. The performer does not need to be a blood relative.
Yes. Proxy Umrah and Hajj are permitted by the majority of scholars across the Hanafi, Shafi’i, Hanbali, and Maliki schools, based on a hadith where the Prophet ﷺ instructed a companion to perform both on behalf of his elderly father.
Every booking includes HD video showing the scholar completing Tawaf and Sa’i in Makkah in your loved one’s name. This footage is sent along with a digital certificate. We never issue a certificate without accompanying video proof.
