Language All you need to know about Rituals to perform in Umrah and Ziyarah Al Masjid An Nabawi Entrance to Umrah Umrah in a Nutshell What is the Umrah? Umrah is an act of worshipping Allah by entering the state of Ihram, circumambulating the House, running between Safa and Marwa, and having the head shaved or trimmed. How do I enter into the state of Ihram? A Muslim enters into the state of Ihram at the place specified by Sharia, and shall abstain from the Ihram prohibitions He shall recite Talbiyah, saying: “Labbayka Allaahumma Labbayk, Labbayka La Shareeka Laka Labbayk. Innal Hamda Wan-ni’mata Laka Wal-Mulk, La Shareeka Lak” (Here I am at your service, o Allah, at Your service! At Your service! You have no partner! I am at Your service! Indeed, all praise and grace belong to You, and so does the supreme authority. You have no partner) Circumambulation (Tawaf): He/she goes to the Haram When the Kaaba is to the left, they circumambulate (counterclockwise) He begins and ends at the Black Stone After completion of the seven rounds, you pray two Rakaah in an appropriate place Sa’i (between Safa and Marwa): He/she heads to Safa where he starts Sa’i towards Marwa. Once reaching Marwa, you have completed one round. Crossing the distance back to Safa fulfills the second round, and so on until the seventh round ends at Marwa. Having hair of the head shaven or trimmed: After completing Sa’i, men go to the barber shops to have their hair shaven or trimmed Women gather their hair and cut from its ends about (1-2 cm) With this act, the Umrah would be completed, marking the end of Ihram Umrah pilgrims should avoid any conduct that harms others in the Haram, such as jostling, entering crowded places, and reversing the direction of circumambulation. They shall carefully follow the instructions of observers and security personnel. Video (Arabic) Video (English) Umrah in Ramadan Performing Umrah in Ramadan Umrah has great virtues at all times. It is one of the deeds that expiate sins, for the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) said. Additionally, it has a special virtue during Ramadan. Reward for performing Umrah in Ramadan The Prophet blessings and peace be upon him said: “Performance of Umrah in Ramadan is equivalent to Hajj”, or he said: “Equal to performance of Hajj with me” This virtue extends to all the days and nights of Ramadan The pilgrim must perform his Umrah at the time allotted to him as shown by the reservations in the official Umrah applications When you drive for Umrah, park your car in a parking lot in Makkah. Video (Arabic) Video (English) Umrah Repetition Performing more than one Umrah during the same trip Performing the Umrah is one of the best and greatest deeds in the sight of Allah, as the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) said: “The performance of one Umrah is an expiation for what was committed between it and the previous. And it is allowed to repeat more than once per year”. Is it prescribed to perform more than one Umrah during the same trip? Some visitors to Makkah are keen to repeat Umrah on behalf of themselves or some of their relatives, for fear that they won’t be able to visit Makkah again. This is permissible unless it causes inconvenience to other pilgrims or it violates the terms and conditions of Umrah’s official applications. Once one obtains the necessary permission of the concerned bodies to perform another Umrah shall go to the nearest place outside the Haram, such as the mosque of Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) in Al Taneem. He/she enters into the state of Ihram from this place, then performs the Umrah. Virtue of Umrah Umrah is a set of rituals of worshipping Allah by entering into the state of Ihram, performing circumambulation of the Kaaba, performing Sa’i between Safa and Marwa, and having one’s hair shaven or trimmed.

The Almighty said: {and perform properly the Hajj and Umrah for Allah}. It wipes out sins and reduces poverty and need: the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) said: “Perform Hajj and Umrah consecutively; for they remove poverty and sin as the bellows remove impurity from iron”. Umrah expiates sins: the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) said: “From one Umrah to the next is an expiation for the sins committed between them”. Every step in circumambulation is an increase in good deeds and forgiveness of sins: the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) said about the virtues of circumambulating the honored House: “Whoever circumambulates the House does not raise a foot or put down the other, except that Allah will write down for him a good deed, erase for him a sin and raise his rank”. Sa’i between Safa and Marwa is a reason why Allah will be thankful and rewarding to His servant: after mentioning Sa’i between Safa and Marwa, Allah informed us that He fully knows His servant’s work and that He will reward the servant for the deed and good work. He said: “And who volunteers good, Allah is All-grateful, All-knowing”. Makkah the Sanctuary of Allah Allah singled out Makkah and honored it over all parts of the world. One of the greatest signs is that it is His sanctuary. What is the meaning of ‘Haram’ (Sanctuary)? It is a place in which certain things, allowed elsewhere, are prohibited out of veneration and reverence for the One Who prohibited it.
