Umrah preparation
Prepare for Umrah with clarity
Begin with purpose, then choose the right Adult Ihram size: Medium, Standard or Large. From there, build a simple travel kit for men, women and families.
Prepare the visit
Before you pack, know where you are going
Think of the Ancient House as the King's palace: a place you approach with need, humility and allegiance, not just a landmark on a package itinerary. The garments, movements, counts and timings are there to lower the ego before the practical packing begins.
Al-Baqarah 2:127
"Our Lord! Accept this from us."
Return reordered
The better question is not only whether the rites were completed, but what the visit realigned afterward. Pack with the aim of returning with clearer conduct, renewed allegiance and obligations you will carry into everyday life.
Size chooser
Choose the adult Ihram size first
Adult Ihram is available in Medium, Standard and Large. Medium is for a teen or leaner adult, Standard is the normal adult size sold commonly worldwide, and Large gives more cloth than the standard size.
