1988. Abū Bakr bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān said: "The messenger of Marwān that was sent to Umm Ma'qal, informed me that she said: 'Abū Ma'qal was performing Hajj with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, so when he arrived, Umm Ma'qal said: "You know that I too am required to perform Hajj." So they both walked to the Prophet ﷺ and entered upon him. She said: "O Messenger of Allāh! Hajj is obligatory upon me, and Abū Ma'qal has (a spare) camel!" Abū Ma'qal said: "She has told the truth, but I have bequeathed it (the camel) in the Cause of Allāh." The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Give
it to her, and let her perform Hajj on it, for it too is in the Cause of Allāh.” So he gave her the camel. She then said: “O Messenger of Allāh! I am an aged woman, and am sick, so is there any deed that will give me the equivalent (reward) of a Hajj?” He replied: ‘An 'Umrah in Ramaḍān is equivalent to a Hajj.’” (Da'if)

Commentary
If one has not performed Hajj, and they do perform 'Umrah in Ramaḍān, they will still be required to perform the obligatory Hajj.
