Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Some people say that 'Umrah in Dhul-Qa'dah is better than 'Umrah in Ramadan, because Allah does not choose for His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) anything but what is best.

Answer:
My brother, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said
'Umrah in Ramadan is like a Hajj with me,عمرة في رمضان كعمرة معي،
or like a Hajj with me,
'Umrah in Ramadan is like a Hajjعمرة في رمضان كحجة
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 4:128
with me, and you say that the Messenger did not say that? What is this talk? The Messenger said
'Umrah in Ramadan is like a Hajj with meعمرة في رمضان كحجة معي
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 4:128
, how do you refute this hadith? He says: Yes, he did not perform 'Umrah except in Dhul-Qa'dah and Shawwal, but it is he who said
'Umrah in Ramadan is like a Hajjعمرة في رمضان كحجة
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 4:128
with me. Yes.
