Question : Is there a special virtue for 'Umrah in the month of Rajab?

Answer : There is no report from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding any specific month other than this one. Rather, it was reported from him: . Also, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not perform 'Umrah except in Ramadan. As for what Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) mentioned—that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) performed 'Umrah in Rajab—Ammu al-Mu'minin A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) clarified to Ibn 'Umar, who was present, that he had made a mistake in that matter. Ibn 'Umar did not object to her and agreed with her. Every person is subject to error. However, it was reported from 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) and others among the Companions that they performed 'Umrah in Rajab because it is a sacred month, and so that the House would remain frequented at the end of the year. Why perform 'Umrah at the end of the year? With Hajj. And in the middle of the year with 'Umrah. For this reason, the Arabs—meaning the Arabs had a tradition—used to prohibit fighting in Rajab because they performed 'Umrah in it, and in Dhul-Hijjah, Dhul-Qa'dah, and Muharram because they performed Hajj in it: one month before Hajj, one month after Hajj, and one month during Hajj. Therefore, whoever performs 'Umrah in Rajab, following the practice of some of the Companions, has done nothing wrong.
