Question:
I perform 'Umrah annually, praise be to Allah, and when I return to my country, I buy some clothing and electrical appliances to trade in them. Is there any harm in that?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. There is nothing wrong for a pilgrim performing Hajj or 'Umrah to trade and engage in business. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Baqarah 2:198] This verse was revealed concerning a group of people who were hesitant about trading during Hajj; they were hesitant about buying and selling during Hajj, so Allah revealed this verse. [Al-Baqarah 2:198] Yes.
