Unable to make Shib Attribute Query

Yes, we are using Shibboleth at both the ends . We upgraded shibboleth version from 2.4 to 2.6 .
We have a requirement when a user is able to log in successfully for the very first time, so if after certain period of time user tries to access the federation, user should not prompt to enter the credentials again. 
To achieve this functionality we are using attribute query. To make an attribute query we are facing some issues.

I have attached  the request and response what we are trying. Correct me what I am missing .

I'm asking you, for the third time:

- is Shibboleth being used at either end of this?
- why are you using queries?

You don't need queries if there's a WAYF involved because that's SSO, and SSO does not need to involve making queries, that's just an old SAML 1.1 hack that's no longer relevant.
