The questioner : The questioner, Ahmad Hussein, asks: Is it valid for the pilgrim to perform more than one 'Umrah during the days of Hajj?
The Shaykh : No, it is not prescribed for the pilgrim to perform 'Umrah except the 'Umrah of the one performing tamattu' if he is performing tamattu', or the 'Umrah of the one performing qiran which merges into the Hajj if he is performing qiran. As for the one performing ifrad, it is not prescribed for him to perform an 'Umrah after the completion of Hajj, because that was not known in the era of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them). The utmost of what happened is that Aisha, the Mother of the Believers (may Allah be pleased with her), menstruated before she reached Mecca while she was coming from Madinah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to her while she was crying, and she informed him of what had happened to her. He ordered her to enter the state of ihram for Hajj, so she entered the state of ihram for Hajj and remained in her state of ihram until Hajj was completed, thereby becoming one performing qiran. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her:.
When Hajj was completed, she requested from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to perform an independent 'Umrah, just as the people performing tamattu' performed an independent 'Umrah. He permitted her and took her brother, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakr, with her to al-Tan'im. Aisha entered the state of ihram, but 'Abd al-Rahman did not enter the state of ihram, because that was not known among them. So, any woman who experiences what happened to Aisha, there is no blame on her if she performs an 'Umrah after Hajj. As for anything other than this case, that is not from the Sunnah, and it is not befitting for a person to do something that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) did not do. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah bless you.

Your circumambulation of the House and of al-Safa and al-Marwah suffices you for your Hajj and your 'Umrah.
إن طوافك بالبيت وبالصفا والمروة يسعك لحجك وعمرتكWhen Hajj was completed, she requested from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to perform an independent 'Umrah, just as the people performing tamattu' performed an independent 'Umrah.
