Umrah has been the most sacred pilgrimage of millions of the Muslims, each year to travel to the Holy land and also attain the blessings of the Almighty Allah (SWT). In Islam, the conduct of the journey of Umrah has been considered very sacred as this leads to the growth of salvation and also allows the pilgrim to refresh his faith and gain the core understanding of the ways in which he can be able to be a true Muslim. Moreover, it is also true that this journey purifies the soul of a pilgrim, as all of the mortal sins of the pilgrim get eradicated and this is indeed one of the biggest blessings from Allah (SWT) that one can ever have.
For those who had already conducted this journey with the help of the best umrah travel agency, will surely have the urge to conduct the journey again with our best team of professionals and also be ready to gain mercy and blessings from the Creator.
Umrah consists of four essential practices. Firstly, you get changed into the Ihram garments before the Miqat, perform two Rakahs of Salah and make your Niyyah as the Miqat approaches, thereafter reciting the Talbiyah frequently. Secondly, you perform Tawaf al-Umrah of the Kaaba followed by two Rakahs of Salah, preferably near Maqam Ibrahim. Thirdly, you do Sa’i of Safa and Marwah. Lastly, you shave (Halq) or shorten (Taqsir) your hair allowing you to leave the state of Ihram and complete your Umrah.
If you’re going to Madinah before Makkah, you don’t need to enter into the state of Ihram at this point. You will do so after your stay in Madinah.
