salams, my question is, if person won the lottery, than he want to offer me money to performe umrah, it is permissible for accept it.

Answer

(Fatwa: 257/257=M/1429)

If that person is giving you the same money he got from lottery, then it is not allowed to accept it and go for Umrah; since the money is unlawful. But, if he gives you any some lawful money, then you should accept it.
