The Rajab 'Umrah and Its Virtue
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He also asks, saying: Among the common people, what is called the Rajab 'Umrah has become widespread. Does it have a special virtue over other 'Umrahs?
Answer:
We told you not to single out Rajab over the other months, because nothing has been established regarding it. However, Shaykh Ibn Baz (may Allah have mercy on him) held that the 'Umrah in Rajab has a special status, and he held that Ibn 'Umar used to perform 'Umrah in Rajab. Allah knows best. As for anything other than 'Umrah, no, there is no fasting and no special designation for night prayer or anything else. Yes. As for the 'Umrah, there is a degree of scholarly disagreement regarding it. Yes.
