BAYAN LI AL-HAJ #SIRI 19: MELAKUKAN UMRAH LEBIH DARIPADA SEKALI
How many umrahs count as valid if a pilgrim performs four voluntary umrahs but only completes tahallul after the fourth, and is a dam required?
Short answer
Only one umrah is counted as valid, because the pilgrim did not complete the required rites, notably shaving or trimming the hair, for the first three.

Summary
Only one umrah is counted as valid, because the pilgrim did not complete the required rites, notably shaving or trimming the hair, for the first three. Repeating the intention, tawaf and sa'i without tahallul does not complete the additional umrahs. A dam is imposed according to the offence if any ihram prohibition was violated, but no dam is due if none was.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Justeru, umrahnya yang dikira sah hanyalah satu kali sahaja iaitu umrahnya yang pertama dengan tahallul umrah yang terakhir manakala tiga umrah yang lain tidak dikira sah kerana dia tidak menyempurnakan tahallul.
