Is it recommended to perform Hajj alone (ifrad) to alleviate the crowds for those who have previously performed 'Umrah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In this time when a person is able to perform 'Umrah more than once during the year, does he choose the type of worship called ifrad, and would that alleviate the crowding for the pilgrims?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. He has the choice between tamattu', qiran, and ifrad. He has the choice, so whichever he takes, it is permissible for him. May Allah expand this for us.
