The best Time to perform 'Umrah is during Ramadhan


Question :

Is there any specific virtue that is confirmed for performing 'Umrah during the months of Hajj that is different from its virtue in other months?


Answer:

The best time to perform 'Umrah is during the month of Ramadhan. This is due to the Prophet's statement:
"An 'Umrah in Ramadhan is equal to a Hajj.”

The authenticity of this Hadith is agreed upon and in another narration in Al-Bukhari the wording is:
"Is equivalent to a Hajj (performed) with me."

And in Muslim one wording states:
"Is equivalent to a Hajj or a Hajj (performed) with me."

It has been reported like this with doubt. This means a Hajj performed with him. Then after that, the 'Umrah performed in Thul-Qa'dah, because all of the Prophet's 'Umrahs were in Thul-Qa'dah, and indeed Allâh said:
"Indeed there is an excellent example for you in the Messenger of " Allah (Muhammad)."

And success is from Allâh.
