Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : We mentioned the other opinion. We mentioned that the virtue of 'Umrah in Ramadan was disputed by some scholars, who held that it is specific to women and those in a similar situation, according to another opinion. If you could mention and indicate which is stronger, Shaykh: Is 'Umrah in Ramadan like a Hajj? Which do you consider stronger, Shaykh?
The Shaykh : By Allah, I am hesitant about this, because as of this moment, I do not know that the Salaf (the earliest generations) specifically designated Ramadan for 'Umrah and went to perform 'Umrah in Ramadan. So I say: It appears to me that there is no practical Sunnah (recommended practice) in this. And above every person of knowledge is One who knows.
