Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a man performs 'Umrah on the first night of the nights of Ramadan, does the virtue of 'Umrah in Ramadan, which is equivalent to Hajj, apply to him, or is this only during the days of Ramadan?
Answer:
Yes, all of Ramadan, from its beginning to its end.
Q: From the first night of Ramadan?
A: Yes.
Q: The questioner says: I performed 'Umrah in the month of Rajab, and I want to perform 'Umrah in the blessed month of Ramadan, if Allah wills. Which is better and more preferable: to gift the reward of this 'Umrah to my mother, who is still alive, or to my maternal uncle, whom Allah has taken?
A: If your mother is unable and cannot perform 'Umrah, she is more deserving of kindness than the maternal uncle, or if she is deceased.
Q: Is it permissible to perform more than one 'Umrah during the last ten days of Ramadan?
A: I am not aware of any prohibition, unless there is crowding and hardship, in which case leaving it is preferable.
Q: Regarding 'Umrah: if the hardship is removed, can a person repeat it in Ramadan?
A: I am not aware of any prohibition. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 1349a. He (peace and blessings be upon him) did not set a limit, but one should consider avoiding hardship; because some people experience crowding and hardship. If there is crowding, leaving it is preferable.

An Umra is an expiation for the sins committed between it and the next
العمرةُ إلى العمرة كفَّارةٌ لما بينهما
