Makkah
Makkah is not just a city; it's a spiritual epicenter that pulsates with the collective faith of millions. The air is thick with devotion, and the city itself seems to bow to the grandeur of the Masjid al-Haram, home to the Kaaba. Here, the concept of Umrah takes on a tangible form, as pilgrims clad in Ihram circumambulate the Kaaba, their faces glowing with an indescribable serenity.
The city offers more than just the central rites of Umrah. It's a living museum, a sacred geography mapped with sites like Jabal al-Nour, where the Prophet Muhammad received his first revelation. The cave of Hira on this mountain is akin to the spiritual womb of Islam, a place that every believer longs to visit.

Umrah Guide
Umrah consists of four essential practices. Firstly, you get changed into the Ihram garments before the Miqat, perform two Rakahs of Salah and make your Niyyah as the Miqat approaches, thereafter reciting the Talbiyah frequently. Secondly, you perform Tawaf al-Umrah of the Kaaba followed by two Rakahs of Salah, preferably near Maqam Ibrahim. Thirdly, you do Sa’i of Safa and Marwah. Lastly, you shave (Halq) or shorten (Taqsir) your hair allowing you to leave the state of Ihram and complete your Umrah.
