Umrah is the lesser pilgrimage and it is one of the wonderful ways for a person to return to the path of truth, glory be to Him, and to obtain forgiveness for all his previous sins. Therefore, a person must perform Umrah with great perfection, and this perfection begins before arriving in Mecca and Medina. The stage of preparing for Umrah is one of the most important stages. It is also important that you prepare yourself mentally because you will go on a purely spiritual journey for the sake of Allah, glory be to Him. On this journey, you will ask for help from Allah Almighty for the rest of your life. You will also continue to seek forgiveness for the offenses and sins you committed against other servants in your previous life. You must also be certain that you will visit the grave of the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace. You must prepare yourself mentally and this preparation must be sincere between you and yourself. Determining the intention: All acts of worship in Islam are based on intention, so intention is the first thing you must prepare for, and your intention must be to go to Umrah to please Allah Almighty, not for worldly gains or hypocrisy, and not to appear as a dignified pilgrim. Your going must be purely for the sake of Allah Almighty. It is important that you do not talk a lot about going to Umrah so as not to engage in religious bragging and hypocrisy, but if you have to tell someone that you are going to Umrah, there is nothing wrong with telling whoever needs to know, but it is not part of the intention to publish on social media that you are going to Mecca or that you are in Medina or to film short videos inside the Haram and that you are affected by the scene or that you are crying, as we see these days from the farces that happen on social media. As it happens in some villages, it is considered customary to hold a party for the pilgrim before going to Umrah and after returning from Umrah as well. These parties are unnecessary if there is an intention to do them to impress people and not to please Allah Almighty. You should also ask yourself when determining the intention for Umrah what requires you to go to Umrah for this, in order to renew the intention to reconcile with yourself and please Allah Almighty and stay away from the sins of this world because this thinking will make you strong and will maintain your spiritual connection with Allah Almighty and with yourself, and this is what is required. Physical preparation: Physical preparation is no less than mental preparation in anything because the Umrah journey requires a lot of energy and stability in the soul and body so that you can perform the rituals with all strength and activity because there is a lot of walking, especially in Makkah Al-Mukarramah. There may be a scorching sun depending on the month in which you will travel to Umrah. During the circumambulation, the round will differ if you are close or far from the Kaaba. The entire circumambulation round may take an average of 20 miles. It is important to prepare for this walk by walking short distances before traveling to Umrah. You must change your sleeping and eating habits and adjust them according to the Umrah schedule because the physical effort is no less than the mental effort in this trip. We are here to help you make the best Umrah trip you will ever have.
