What is the best time to perform Umrah?
Umrah can be performed at any time of the year, but many pilgrims prefer to go during the cooler months from November to March when the weather in Saudi Arabia is more comfortable. The holy month of Ramadan is also a popular time for Umrah, as performing Umrah during this period is considered highly rewarding.

Some countries also require a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the applicant’s home country. The travel agency will assist you with the necessary paperwork and ensure all requirements are met.
Can a woman go to Umrah and Hajj without Maharam?
Umrah and Hajj are the two most common pilgrimages for every Muslim. Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam but Umrah is an additional journey to Mecca with a special ritual. Although it is not required of any Muslim, it is a strongly encouraged act of worship known as ibadat.
Yes, women are allowed to perform Hajj and Umrah without the need for a mahram. Saudi Arabia has lifted its ban on women who are not to travel alone during the Hajj and Umrah. Before, women were required to have a male relative accompany them during the Islamic pilgrimage. This policy change, introduced in 2023, has allowed thousands of women to participate in Hajj Umrah and other usual pilgrimages. Saudi Minister of Hajj and Umrah, Dr. Tawfiq Al-Rabiah, declared that it is no longer compulsory for a woman pilgrim to be accompanied by a mahram (blood relative) when traveling to Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj or Umrah. It is a respectable step taken by the government of Saudi Arabia to enhance the rights of women.
How to perform Umrah : A step-by-step guide to the Spiritual Pilgrimage .
The Arabic word ‘Umrah’ has been derived from ‘i’timar’, which is defined as a visit In Islamic terminology. Umrah is a non-compulsory Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca that can be undertaken at any time of the year. It involves performing certain religious rituals like Tawaf (circumambulation of Kaaba) and Sa’i (running between the hills of Safa and Marwah). Unlike Hajj it is not obligatory but is highly recommended in Islam.
Step 1: Preparing for Departure: First, make sure you are clean and pure before you go. Take a shower, cut your nails, and wear simple white clothes. This is to show that everyone is equal in the eyes of God.
Step 2: Start Your Journey: When you get to Mecca, go to the Miqaat a special place for those starting their Umrah. Here, make your intention known: “I am doing Umrah, God, please accept it from me.” This is known as “Ihram”.
Step 3: The Tawaf: Next, you will walk around the Kaaba, a special black stone in a big square building in Mecca. You must do this seven times. This is known as Tawaf.
Dua During Tawaf: Rabbana Atina Fid Dunya Hasanah, wa fil akhirati hasanah, wa qina Azab annar.
Step 4: The Sa’i: Then, go to two hills named Safa and Marwa, which are near the Ka’bah. Walk or run between them seven times. This is called Sa’i
Dua: Inna s-safa wa l-marwata min sha’a’iri llah
Step 5: Shaving or Cutting the Hair: After Sa’i, men must shave or cut their hair from the head, while women just need to cut a little bit. This shows that the Umrah is finished, and you can now wear your normal clothes.
Step 6: Praying: Don’t forget to pray daily in the Grand Mosque and read the Quran as much as you can for the rest of your stay in Mecca. You can also perform other recommended prayers there.
Step 7: Last Day: On the last day, visit the hills of Safa and Marwa again, perform Tawaf one more time, and say goodbye to the Ka’bah. This is known as “Tawaf al-Wada’” or the Farewell Tawaf.
That’s it! You’ve completed your Umrah. It might seem like a big task but taking it one step at a time makes it easier. Remember, the most important part of Umrah is to feel close to God and to ask for His blessing and forgiveness.
