Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for an employee to take leave from his work and go to perform 'Umrah?
Answer:
If he has an official right to this leave, he should schedule it for Ramadan, because an employee is entitled to leave during the year. If he schedules it for Ramadan and requests it, and it is his right, there is nothing wrong with it. However, if he takes leave specifically for the sake of 'Umrah, remaining at his work is better for him than performing 'Umrah. Yes.
