Performing more than one Umrah during the same trip
- Performing the Umrah is one of the best and greatest deeds in the sight of Allah, as the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) said: “The performance of one Umrah is an expiation for what was committed between it and the previous. And it is allowed to repeat more than once per year”.
Is it prescribed to perform more than one Umrah during the same trip?
- Some visitors to Makkah are keen to repeat Umrah on behalf of themselves or some of their relatives, for fear that they won’t be able to visit Makkah again. This is permissible unless it causes inconvenience to other pilgrims or it violates the terms and conditions of Umrah’s official applications.
- Once one obtains the necessary permission of the concerned bodies to perform another Umrah shall go to the nearest place outside the Haram, such as the mosque of Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) in Al Taneem. He/she enters into the state of Ihram from this place, then performs the Umrah.
