'Umrah begins with declaring the state of Ihram from
the Miqat then circumambulating the Sacred House in seven rounds
observing the same rules . After that, the pilgrim should perform Sa'y
between the Safa and Marwah seven times Sa'i
begins from Safa and ends at Marwah and not vice versa The Muhrim is
expected to walk between Safa and Marwah until he reaches the two green
markers then it is preferred that he jogs (walks fast) between these two
points. Needless to say, this applies to male pilgrims only who should
follow the Sunnah in Ramal (jogging with close firm steps) . Then
he should shave or clip his hair short. When he reaches this stage, he
has performed 'Umrah. |
