As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu

Umrah – 27th Sha'aban 1433 (17th July 2012)

Narrated Ata (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

I heard Ibn 'Abbas saying, "Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam)
asked an Ansari woman (Ibn 'Abbas named her but Ata forgot her name), 'What
prevented you from performing Hajj with us?' She replied, 'We have a camel
and the father of so-and-so and his son (i.e. her husband and her son) rode
it and left one camel for us to use for irrigation.' He said (to her),
'Perform 'Umra when Ramadan comes, for 'Umra in Ramadan is equal to Hajj
(in reward),' or said something similar."
