Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. These are many questions; we have presented to your eminence whatever of them is feasible. This questioner says: Does the fact that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Hajj only once imply that the Sunnah is to perform Hajj only once, which is the obligatory one, and likewise regarding the four 'Umrahs?
Answer:
No, this is not understood from it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: without a specific limit. Whoever wants to provision himself with good, let him do so, without a limit.

Hajj is once, meaning the obligatory one, and whatever is in excess is voluntary.
الحج مرة واحدة يعني فريضة، وما زاد فهو تطوع
