Dear reader,

This is my humble contribution towards concising the protocol for umrah . This has been
gleaned from several sources online and from books. Hope you find it useful. Do remember
me and my family in your duas.

How to Perform Umrah

Salaatul Ihram
After wearing the ihram, perform two rakaat sunnatul ihram. In the first rakaah read: Surah Kafiroon In the second
rakaah read Surah Ikhlaas. After the completion of this salah, make the niyyah (intention) of umrah,

Allahhumma inni ureedul umrata fa-yassir lee wa-taquabbalhaa minni

and recite the talbiyah thrice (Loudly for males, and softly for females).

Labbaik, Allahumma labbaik, Labbaik la shareeka laka labbaik, Innal hamda wan ne’mata
laka wal mulk, La shareeka lak.
