The ruling on specifying 'Umrah for the month of Rajab
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And likewise, may Allah preserve you, he asks about the ruling on 'Umrah in Rajab and specifying it for that month?
Answer:
No evidence has been established for specifying 'Umrah in Rajab, and as long as no evidence is established, it is not specified with 'Umrah. 'Umrah is prescribed throughout the year, not restricted to specific days except by evidence. No evidence has come regarding specifying Rajab with 'Umrah. Rather, Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) used to do that, and this is the action of a Companion. There must be evidence from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) was lenient in this and said there is no harm, because Ibn 'Umar used to perform 'Umrah in Rajab, so he was lenient in this and did not see any harm in it, and Allah knows best.
