Is the Umrah of equal importance to the Hadj which takes place over the next 3 months after Ramadaan? I thought it was a spiritual holiday. Just asking.

Sorry this is abit off topic, but just to answer the question that was asked
Umrah & haj are just as important as the other, they both have to be carried out at least once if you can afford.

With Haj, a muslim has more to do than umrah. Its a longer process.

Wikipedia has a very good article on what is haj & what is required etc found here & you can find more about umrah here
 
Slightly off topic, yes, but very informative. ;)
Thank you for providing those links dazzling, it was a very interesting read. :)

Actually that's incorrect.

Umrah is not mandatory, Hajj is the only mandatory pilgrimage for every muslim man, woman and child.
