🕌 Step-by-Step Umrah Rituals

Step 1: Ihram (Sacred State)

Enter the sacred state of Ihram before crossing the Miqat (boundary). Perform ghusl, wear ihram clothing, and make intention (niyyah).

Niyyah for Umrah: "Labbayka Allahumma bi Umratin"

Step 2: Tawaf (Circling the Kaaba)

Circle the Kaaba seven times counter-clockwise, starting and ending at the Black Stone (Hajar al-Aswad).

  • Start at Black Stone, point towards it and say "Bismillah, Allahu Akbar"
  • Walk counter-clockwise keeping Kaaba on your left
  • Complete 7 rounds (circuits)
  • Men: First 3 rounds walk briskly (Raml), next 4 normal pace

Step 3: Sa'i (Walking Between Safa and Marwa)

Walk seven times between the hills of Safa and Marwa, following the path of Hajar (AS).

  • Start at Safa hill, face the Kaaba and make dua
  • Walk towards Marwa hill (1 lap)
  • At Marwa, face Kaaba and make dua, walk back to Safa (2 laps)
  • Continue until you complete 7 laps ending at Marwa

Step 4: Halq or Taqsir (Hair Cutting)

Complete Umrah by cutting or shaving hair, symbolizing renewal and completion of pilgrimage.

  • Men: Shave head completely (Halq) or trim hair short (Taqsir)
  • Women: Trim fingertip length from end of hair
  • This completes your Umrah - you can exit Ihram state
