What have respected Islamic scholars and Muftis ruled on the following issue? A person has already performed an ‘Umrah and wishes to perform more ‘Umrahs; what is preferable for him to perform now, ‘Umrah or Tawaf?(Questioner: Muhammad Shafeeq Athar, Wah Cantt) |
|
بِسْمِ اللہِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ |
|
اَلْجَوَابُ بِعَوْنِ الْمَلِکِ الْوَھَّابِ اَللّٰھُمَّ ھِدَایَۃَ الْحَقِّ وَالصَّوَابِ |
|
Performing a Nafl ‘Umrah during permissible time is preferable to performing a Nafl Tawaf because the act of worship that involves more hardship is preferable and compared to a Tawaf, an ‘Umrah involves more hardship and takes more time to be performed |

وَاللہُ اَعْلَمُ عَزَّوَجَلَّ وَرَسُوْلُہ اَعْلَم صَلَّی اللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّم |
