Umrah, a spiritual journey above all

To accomplish Umrah, the pilgrim must be in the state of’ihram, a state of purity and sacralization. L’ihram is also the name given to the garment worn by men during the Umrah. The Umrah begins with the taking of’ihram, which intervenes even before’entering the holy city. Pilgrims are then advised to trim their hair, nails, get rid of armpit and pubic hair, take a bath and do the ghusl. Finally, the pilgrim must also wear an izar and a rida, two pieces of white fabric without seams, clean and preferably new : The precaution requires that the’izar covers the part of the body from the navel to’aux knees, and the rida, both shoulders, the top of both arms and a good part of the back. To perfume the body. If this outfit concerns the’homme,women can wear sewn clothes. The pilgrim must therefore enter into a state of sacralization from Miqat. S’en follows the Tawaf of the Umrah. He then does the Saayi between Safa and Marwa before breaking his ihram by shaving or shortening the hair.
