How to perform Umrah

The journey, step by step

Where the group goes, what you do when you get there, and where you sleep. Your group's scholar guides every rite in person; this page is so you know what to expect.

The flight path

Which airline, which way

Turkish Airlines groups connect in Istanbul; Egyptair groups in Cairo. Every group lands in Madinah, travels to Makkah by coach, and flies home from Jeddah.

Land-only package (Dec 24): you arrange your own flights; the group itinerary begins on arrival in Madinah and ends at Jeddah.

The rites

Umrah in six steps

A plain outline of what every pilgrim does. Details of dua, dress and etiquette are taught by the scholar travelling with your group.

  1. Ihram

    Before the miqat

    Bathe, put on the two white garments (men) or ordinary modest dress (women), make the intention for Umrah and recite the Talbiyah. Groups flying into Madinah enter ihram at Dhul Hulayfah (Abyar Ali) on the way to Makkah.

  2. Talbiyah

    On the road to Makkah

    Labbayk Allahumma labbayk — repeated on the coach until you reach the Haram.

  3. Tawaf

    Masjid al-Haram

    Seven circuits of the Kaaba, anticlockwise, beginning and ending at the Black Stone line. Two rak'ahs behind Maqam Ibrahim, then Zamzam.

  4. Sa'i

    Between Safa and Marwah

    Seven lengths between the two hills inside the mosque, starting at Safa and finishing at Marwah.

  5. Halq or Taqsir

    Makkah

    Men shave or shorten the hair; women cut a fingertip's length. Umrah is complete and ihram ends.

  6. Ziyarat

    Makkah and Madinah

    Where the package includes it: the historic sites of both cities with the group and its scholar.
