Umrah—a word filled with peace, purpose, and deep spiritual meaning. But for many Muslims in India preparing for their first journey, it can also come with questions and uncertainty. What is Umrah really about? What are the rituals? When should you go? Let’s walk you through everything you need to know.
🌙 What is the Meaning of Umrah?
The word “Umrah” comes from Arabic and means “to visit a populated place”, but in Islam, it refers to a voluntary pilgrimage to the holy city of Makkah, which can be performed at any time of the year—unlike Hajj, which has fixed dates.
For Muslims, performing Umrah is a powerful spiritual experience, a chance to:
- Cleanse the soul of sins
- Seek closeness to Allah
- Experience unity with the global Muslim community
Though it’s not obligatory like Hajj, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ strongly encouraged it. Many people perform it more than once in their lifetime.
🕋 What Are the Rituals of Umrah?
There are four main rituals in Umrah, all performed in a state of Ihram (a sacred state of purity):
- Ihram – Wearing the white garments and making the intention for Umrah
- Tawaf – Circumambulating the Kaaba 7 times
- Sa’i – Walking between the hills of Safa and Marwah 7 times
- Halq or Taqsir – Shaving the head (for men) or trimming a portion of the hair (for women)
Each step is filled with symbolism, reflection, and connection to the journey of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) and Hajar (AS).
