Question

Can a person performing Umrah be called Haji or not? In the same way, will it be legal to use Haji at the beginning or end of his name? 8657783222


Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

Hajj and Umrah are not the same level of worship. Rather, it is two different acts of worship. And a pilgrim can only be called one who has performed Hajj on his own behalf. Because, the word Haji means performer of Hajj. Therefore, if someone performs Umrah, he cannot be called Haji and the word Haji cannot be used at the beginning of his name. However, he can be called Mu'tamir (performer of Umrah). 1268638564
