DETAILED LESSON ON UMRAH :
1.
IHRAAM:
It is incumbent upon all persons livings beyond the Meeqaat (boundary) to put
on the Ihram If they intend going to Makkah Mukarramah. A woman not in the state of
performing Salat is not excused from this.
It is Sunnat to have a bath before putting on the ihram. If this is not possible, Wudhu will
suffice. If is Mustahab to pair the nails, trim the hair and remove all unwanted hair before
the bath.
•
The Ihram for men consists of two pieces of cloth: one for the lower portion of the body
(waist up to above the ankles) and the other for the upper portion of the body The head
and face should he left uncovered. No other garments should he worn. The footwear
should be such that the (centre bones) of the upper part of the feet (the area of the shoe-
lace) must he left uncovered.
•
Women will put on their normal clothes However, their heads must be fully covered Their
faces and hands (up to the wrists) COULD be exposed It becomes WAAJIB to cover their
faces if they fear Fitnah. This should he done in such a manner that the covering does
NOT touch the face.
2. TWO RAK'AATS SUNNAT OF IHRAAM:
After putting on the Ihram, perform 2 Rak'aah Sunnatul Ihram with the headgear (A
woman not in the state of performing Salat, will not perform this Salat)
She will perform Ghusl,
Put on her clothes (which will serve as her lhraam).
Make the Niyyah and recite the Talbiyah.
After entering Makkah Mukarramah she will take a bath when Salat becomes Farz on her,
wear her clothes (which will serve as her Ihram) and perform the Umrah.
3. NIYYAH AND TALBIYAH:
After having performed the two Raka’ats Sunnah of Ihram, remove the headgear (men
only) and say the Niyyah and Talbiyah which are Wajib. Without this the Ihram will not
be accepted.
If one goes beyond the Meeqaat without the Niyyah (with Ihram), Dum will have to be
given. When in Ihram repeat the Talbiyah as often as possible. It is Mustahab to repeat
it thrice whenever recited.
