Question:
The questioner is Sudanese. He says: Honorable Shaykh, I reside in Riyadh. Is one 'Umrah in a person's life sufficient, like performing Hajj, if he is from a distant country and his intention is to perform 'Umrah, but he is far away?

Answer:
Yes, Hajj and 'Umrah are obligatory once in a lifetime for the one who is able to afford it, and anything beyond that is voluntary, whether in Hajj or in 'Umrah. Yes.
