Ameer-ul-Mu'mineen Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) saying in the valley of Aqiq: "Last night, a messenger from my Lord came to me and said (to me): Pray in this blessed valley (i.e., Aqiq) and say: 'I have entered into the state of Ihram for both Hajj and Umrah (because Umrah has been included in Hajj. Umrah can also be performed during the days of Hajj).'"

`Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was shown this dream in the last part of the night when he (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was staying near Mu'arris at Dhul-Hulaifah, and it was said to him (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that at this time he (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is in a blessed valley. (Remember that the dreams of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) are also included in revelation.)
