An Overview of ‘Umrah

As we all know, Hajj is performed in the month of Dhul Hijjah! The 12th month of the Hijri Calendar. Before performing the Hajj, most people also perform the ‘Umrah, or lesser Hajj. ‘Umrah can be performed any time of the year. Here is an overview of the different activities we do in ‘Umrah.

‘Umrah Overview

Step 1 – The Ihram!

Before performing ‘umrah or the hajj, a pilgrim must enter the state of ‘ihram‘. Here are two helpful coloring pages to help you understand what is ihram, how you enter Ihram, as well as what is permissible and what is not permissible during ihram. Enjoy!

Step 2 – The Talbiyyah

After entering the state of Ihram, you should start reciting the Talbiyyah all the way till you reach the Ka’ba for Tawaf!

Step 3 – The Tawaf

Once we reach the Ka’bah we perform the Tawaf which means going around the Ka’bah 7 times while praising Allah. Can you spot the difference between the two pictures?

Step #4 – Maqam Ibrahim (AS)

After performing the Tawaf, you need to pray 2 rakaats sunnah at the Maqam Ibrahim (AS) or the Station of Ibrahim (AS). Join the dots and complete the illustration of Maqam Ibrahim (AS).

Step #5 – Sa’ee

We have almost completed ‘Umrah. The next step is to do the sa’ee (the quick walking) and running between the mountains of Safaa and Marwa! Can you find Umm Jamal & Abbu Jamal in the picture below?

Step # 6 – Cut the Hair & Come Out of Ihram

The last step of ‘Umrah is to cut our hair and then we come out of the state of ihram. Color in this picture!
