Is it permissible for me to mention only the first name and the familial relationship when performing 'Umrah on behalf of a female relative, or is it a condition to mention the full name?
If you intend on behalf of your female relative, that suffices without mentioning her name. However, it is better to mention her first name (e.g., “Labbayka on behalf of so-and-so”). Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen was asked about what a pilgrim performing Hajj on behalf of another (a proxy) should say, and he replied: He says: “Labbayka on behalf of so-and-so,” citing the of Ibn Abbas concerning the story of Shibrimah. If he forgets the name, he says: “Labbayka on behalf of the one who gave me proxy for Hajj.” It is not necessary to say this during , Sai, or other rituals; if you intend it from the beginning of , it is sufficient. Therefore, it is not a condition for the validity of Umrah to mention the full name or the degree of kinship.
