What Is Umrah?
Umrah, linguistically, means “to visit.” In Islamic law, it refers to visiting the Sacred House (the Kaaba) in a state of ihram and performing sa‘y between Safa and Marwah.
The definition and ruling of Umrah: Umrah consists of entering into ihram, performing tawaf and sa‘y, and then completing the rites by either shaving the head (tahalluq) or shortening the hair (taqsir). It may be performed at any time of the year except on the Day of Arafah and the days of Eid al-Adha (five days).
The obligatory acts (farḍ) of Umrah: * Ihram. * Tawaf. Among these, ihram is a condition, and tawaf is an essential pillar.
The obligatory duties (wājib) of Umrah: * Sa‘y (in other schools of law, it is considered a pillar of Umrah). * Shaving the head or shortening the hair
(Hanafis and Malikis consider this wājib, while Shafi‘is and Hanbalis consider it a pillar) According to the Hanafi and Maliki schools, performing Umrah once in a lifetime is an emphasized Sunnah. According to the Shafi‘i and Hanbali schools, performing Umrah is obligatory (farḍ).
The miqat places for Umrah: For those coming to Mecca from outside the miqat boundaries, the miqat points are the same as those for Hajj. For those living within the Hill area, the miqat is the Hill itself. Those residing in Mecca, whether locals or visitors, must enter ihram for Umrah from outside the Haram area.
They enter ihram by going to places such as Tan‘im, Hudaybiyyah, or Ji‘ranah.
Spiritual Preparations
- To avoid the risk of violating others’ rights, it is very important to seek forgiveness and reconcile with relatives, neighbors, colleagues, and others.
- Before setting out on the pilgrimage, it is important to recite Istighfar (seeking forgiveness) frequently in order to cleanse ourselves from sins.
- Since we will be visiting our Prophet during the pilgrimage, it is necessary to recite abundant Salawat (blessings upon the Prophet) as a spiritual gift, so as not to go empty-handed.
- In addition, for spiritual preparation before departing for the pilgrimage, it will be beneficial to recite Surah Yasin, Surah Ikhlas, and similar supplications.
- Before embarking on the blessed pilgrimage, performing voluntary prayers such as Tasbih Prayer, Duha, Awwabin, and Tahajjud prayers will be highly beneficial.
- If you do not know how to read the Holy Qur’an, learning it before the pilgrimage will be very beneficial. To learn the Qur’an, you may contact your group instructor.
- You must attend the seminars organized by your company before the pilgrimage. For seminar dates, you can get information from your group instructor or by calling our phone number 010-6689-1453 (ING) / 010-5183-0034 (IDN).
- During the pilgrimage seminar, be sure to meet your group instructor and do not forget to obtain their Saudi phone number. If you could not get it, you may obtain it by calling 010-6689-1453 (ING) / 010-5183-0034 (IDN).
- Do not forget to purchase the necessary items explained during the seminars, such as Ihram, slippers, waist belt, and other required materials for the pilgrimage.
- When traveling for the pilgrimage, it is very important, if possible, to remain in a state of ablution (wudu) during airplane and bus journeys and avoid sleeping. Therefore, make sure to rest well on the day of departure.
- Before departing for the pilgrimage, it is appropriate to perform ghusl (full ritual bath) and, if possible, step into the blessed lands while in a state of major purification.
- Reducing fluid intake 24 hours before departure is important in order to avoid difficulties in maintaining ablution during the journey.
