Question:

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah

When is the best time to perform Umrah?

    بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيْم

                                     In the name of ALLAH the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Answer:

The best time to perform Umrah is during Ramadan.[1]

This is proved from the following hadith narrated by Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) who said the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “An Umrah during Ramadan is equivalent to a Hajj.”[2]

Only Allah SWT alone knows best.
