5 Useful Tips And What To Expect For Your Umrah Trip!

Alhamdulillah, you have finally signed up for your first Umrah trip and are completely psyched!

Before embarking on your trip, you may have received advice from loved ones, friends, and the internet. However, it is important to note that no amount of preparation can fully equip you for the experience of visiting the Holy Land. You must experience it for yourself in order to truly comprehend its significance.

1. Improve your Stamina 

Umrah is a religious pilgrimage that involves performing Tawaf and visiting sacred places while reciting important prayers. In order to successfully complete this spiritual journey, it is important for people to have good stamina.

To enhance their stamina, people should focus on eating healthy foods that provide the necessary vitamins and nutrients. It is recommended to have three meals a day that are rich in vitamins and proteins to ensure that the body has enough energy to perform Umrah without experiencing any health issues.

2. Make Sure to Get Vaccinated

In this pandemic time, the vaccine is the first factor that people should take care of. So make sure you get all the doses of vaccination before planning any journey.

Additionally, it's important to take care of your health before traveling. Even if you have minor symptoms such as a cough, fever, or cold, don't ignore them. Consult with medical professionals and obtain the proper medications to treat your illness.

3. Dress according to the weather

Please take note of the exact dates of your Umrah trip, and plan your clothing accordingly. If you are traveling during the summer season (May-Oct), it is recommended to dress lightly as temperatures can range from 28-45 degrees Celsius. On the other hand, if you are traveling during the winter season (Dec-Feb), it is recommended to dress warmer as temperatures can range from 17-33 degrees Celsius.

In addition, avoid wearing shimmery clothes during Umrah. The reason is that such types of clothes are not allowed during Umrah. 

4. Carry Essential Things with You

You can not take everything with you while traveling. So make sure to carry only those things that are important.

Make a small bag and put only essential items in it. Do not put clothes in it as clothes take more space. The extra things that you might need are

1. Food

2. Sanitizer

3. Wipes

4. Lotion

5. Money and much more

Also, you can have a Roaming man Pocket Wifi along with you, so that you can easily communicate with your family. 

Make sure to stuff lightweight products in the bag and carry it always with you. So that you can use all items when you need them.

5. Do your homework

Having knowledge about a subject helps in developing an appreciation for it. That's why it's advisable to attend preparatory classes offered by Islamic centers or travel groups that specialize in Umrah trips, at least a month before embarking on the journey. These classes can help answer any questions you may have regarding the trip and prepare you for the journey ahead.

If you are going for Umrah, search all these resources and collect the right information. Make sure to read all the Dua’s that people read during Tawaf and visit sacred places.
