Summary
The Prophet SAW performed umrah four times, based on a hadith reported by Muslim from Anas bin Malik RA. Three were in the month of Dhul Qa'dah in the 6th (Hudaibiyah), 7th (qadha' umrah) and 8th years of hijrah (conquest of Makkah), and the fourth was together with his hajj in the 10th year of hijrah. According to Imam al-Nawawi, scholars explain that umrah was done in Dhul Qa'dah because of the month's virtue and to oppose the pre-Islamic view that it was a grave sin.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
