Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh, this is Muhammad from Riyadh. He says: I performed 'Umrah in the month of Shawwal, and I wish to perform Hajj, if Allah wills, this year. Is tamattu' (combining 'Umrah and Hajj with a break between them) better, or ifrad (performing Hajj alone)?
Answer:
No, tamattu' is better. First, tamattu' is the best, then comes qiran (combining 'Umrah and Hajj in one ihram) between Hajj and 'Umrah, and then comes Hajj alone. Yes.
