Question:
The questioner says: I entered ihram from Abaar 'Ali while coming from al-Madinah, and I performed 'Umrah. Then I went to Jeddah and stayed there for two days. Then I entered ihram from Jeddah and performed 'Umrah again. Is my action valid? Please inform us, may Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
There is no harm, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not specify anything regarding the time of 'Umrah. He said (peace and blessings be upon him): "O 'Umrah, O 'Umrah"
an expiation for the sins committed between it and the next, and Hajj which is accepted will receive no other reward than Paradise.كفارة لما بينهما، والحج المبرور ليس له جزاء إلى الجنة
Sahih Muslim 1349a
, and he did not specify the interval between the two 'Umrahs. Some scholars said that there should be a month or forty days or so between them, but there is no evidence for that. So if one performs 'Umrah, then goes to Jeddah or al-Madinah, and then returns to perform a second 'Umrah, there is nothing wrong with it. Praise be to Allah, and proceed with your intention, and praise be to Allah.
