Hadith.2937 - Sama'ah ibn Mehran narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: "Whoever performs Umrah in Shawwal with the intention of returning to their homeland without staying until Hajj, there is no harm in doing so. However, if they stay until Hajj, they are considered Mutamatti‘ (one performing Tamattu‘), as the months of Hajj are Shawwal, Dhu al-Qa'dah, and Dhu al-Hijjah. Whoever performs Umrah during these months and stays until Hajj, it is Tamattu‘. But if they return to their homeland and do not stay until Hajj, it is considered merely an Umrah. If one performs Umrah in Month of Ramadan or before it and stays until Hajj, they are not Mutamatti‘ but rather a Mujawir (resident performing separate Umrah and Hajj). In this case, the Umrah is considered separate. If they wish to perform Tamattu‘ in the months of Hajj, they must exit the state of Ihram by traveling beyond Dhat ‘Irq or Asfan and then re-enter in Ihram for Umrah, intending Tamattu‘ leading to Hajj. If one prefers to perform only Hajj without Tamattu‘, they should go to al-Ji’ranah and enter Ihram from there."
