(Book 20, Hadith 58) #35821
Performing Umrah Before Hajj

SUMMARY: It is permissible to perform Umrah before Hajj, as the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) did so.

Yahya related to me from Malik, from Abd ar-Rahman ibn Harmala al-Aslami, that somebody asked Said ibn al-Musayyab, "Can I do umra before I do hajj?", and Said said, "Yes, the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, did umra before doing hajj".
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ حَرْمَلَةَ الأَسْلَمِيِّ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، سَأَلَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ فَقَالَ أَعْتَمِرُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَحُجَّ، فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ نَعَمْ قَدِ اعْتَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَحُجَّ
