Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I came for 'Umrah and performed it, praise be to Allah. I would like to buy some goods to trade with in my country. Does that affect my 'Umrah?

Answer:
It has no effect at all. Allah the Exalted said:
There is no blame upon you for seeking bounty from your Lordلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَن تَبْتَغُوا فَضْلًا مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ
[Al-Baqarah 2:198]
This was revealed regarding trade, buying, and selling during the days of Hajj. It is permissible for the pilgrim to buy and sell at the sacred sites and at 'Arafah, and likewise in 'Umrah, there is no harm.
