What is recommended for the one performing Tamattu' after 'Umrah and before Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is recommended for the one who performs Hajj as a Mutamatti' when he has finished his 'Umrah? Does he stay in the Haram or leave Makkah?

Answer:
The Sunnah is to remain in the Haram, performing voluntary acts of worship, circumambulating, praying in al-Masjid al-Haram, giving charity, and attending lessons of knowledge until the time for Hajj arrives. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the Companions stayed in the Haram in Makkah until they performed Hajj. So, when he arrives and finishes his 'Umrah, he remains in the Haram, listening to beneficial knowledge, attending lessons of knowledge, and praying the obligatory prayers in the Haram. If it is facilitated for him to pray in Makkah, it is a great blessing and immense good, for a prayer in Makkah is worth a hundred thousand prayers. He gives charity to the poor and the needy, increases in the remembrance of Allah and the recitation of the Qur'an, and takes advantage of the opportunity of being in the Haram. Yes.
