Is it lawful for a person who performed `Umrah and returned to Makkah after a short time to perform another one?


299

Q 12: I came with the intention of performing `Umrah (the lesser pilgrimage) and I have performed it. Is it permissible for me to bypass the Miqats (fixed places to start the rites of Hajj and `Umrah) and perform another `Umrah if I wish? What is the ruling if I come to Al-Ta'if to fulfill some needs, then I intend to perform `Umrah, finish my `Umrah, and want to perform a second `Umrah for myself or for one of my relatives?


A: It is permissible to perform another `Umrah from your Miqat or from any other place inside the Sacred Zone whether your second `Umrah is for yourself, for one (Part No. 11; Page No. 334) of your relatives or a non-relative if the person on whose behalf you are going to perform `Umrah is dead or unable to perform that because of his old age or chronic disease.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
