It is reported on the authority of Ibn Ma’sood [may Allaah be Pleased with him] that he said that the Messenger of Allaah [Peace and Blessings of Allaah be upon him] said,
“Follow one Hajj after another and follow one ‘Umrah after another - because they both nullify poverty and sins like the bellow of the blacksmith destroys iron, silver and gold. And the reward for an accepted Hajj is nothing but Jannah.”
[Reported by at-Tirmidhee (738); an-Nas’aaee (2584) and classed as Saheeh by al-Albaanee in Saheeh al-Jaami’ (2901)]
“Follow one Hajj after another and follow one ‘Umrah after another”: at-Teebee [may Allaah have Mercy on him] said, “This means, if one of you does Hajj, then make ‘Umrah. If one makes ‘Umrah, then make Hajj (i.e. a continual cycle of pilgrimage).”
“…nullify poverty and sins…”: This includes physical poverty as well as the metaphorical form of poverty – giving enrichment of the heart.
“And the reward for an accepted Hajj is nothing but Jannah”: It is said this refers to an accepted pilgrimage which is defined as a pilgrimage which doesn’t involve any sin, this was stated by an-Nawawee and something similar was stated by al-Qurtubee and as-Suyootee.
