The Shortest Interval Between Two 'Umrahs

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner asks: Is it valid for me to perform 'Umrah when I performed 'Umrah the day before? And what is the shortest interval?

The Shaykh:
Is it valid?

The questioner:
For me to perform 'Umrah when I performed 'Umrah the day before, and what is the shortest interval between one 'Umrah and the next?

The Shaykh:
This has not been specified, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said
Perform Hajj and 'Umrah consecutivelyتابعوا بين الحج والعمرة
Sunan an-Nasa'i 2630Hasan (Darussalam)
. Following one 'Umrah with another is permissible, but the better and more preferable option is to have an interval between them during which hair grows on his head. Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) did not consider the next 'Umrah valid until his head had grown a full head of hair, meaning he had a full head of hair that he would then shave, because shaving or shortening the hair is one of the rites of 'Umrah. So there should be an interval between them such that he has hair on his head. Yes.
