Islamic scholars differed regarding someone who performed Umrah in a month other than the months of Hajj and then performed Hajj during that year. So whoever says that he performed Umrah in the month in which he started, this is undoubtedly a tamattu’ for him, but if he performed his Umrah in a month other than the months of Hajj in his view, then he is not a tamattu’, and some of them stipulated that his entire circumambulation be performed. During the months of Hajj, some of them said that if he circumambulated three times in Ramadan and four times in Shawwal, he was performing tamattu’. Some of them said that if he circumambulated three circuits during the months of Hajj or did not circumambulate, he was not performing tamattu’ .
