عَنْ أُمِّ مَعْقِلٍ الْأَسَدِيَّةِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّ زَوْجَهَا جَعَلَ بَكْرًا لَهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَأَنَّهَا أَرَادَتِ الْعُمْرَةَ فَسَأَلَتْ زَوْجَهَا الْبَكْرَ فَأَبَى، فَأَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهَا، وَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((الْحَجُّ وَالْعُمْرَةُ مِنْ سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ))، وَقَالَ: ((عُمْرَةٌ فِي رَمَضَانَ تَعْدِلُ حَجَّةً أَوْ تُجْزِئُ حَجَّةً))، وَقَالَ حَجَّاجٌ: ((تَعْدِلُ بِحَجَّةٍ أَوْ تُجْزِئُ بِحَجَّةٍ))
Lady Umm Ma'qil Asadiyah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: My husband dedicated a young camel in the way of Allah, while I wanted to go for Umrah, so I asked my husband for that camel, but he refused to give it. When I mentioned this to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he ordered my husband to give me the camel. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Hajj and Umrah are also in the way of Allah. He also said: Performing Umrah in Ramadan is equal to Hajj.
