PREPARATION OF IHRAM FOR UMRAH (STEP 2)
Wear dress of ihram then perform two Rakat sunnah for ihram before crossing boundary of Meqaat.
For an example you can wear the dress of ihram from:
(a) your home.
(2) hotel in Medina,
(3) Masjid-e-Meqaat,
(4) in Airplane, your flight direct to Jeddah Airport.
- Perform two rakaats of Ihraam, with the head and shoulders covered.
- In the first rakkat recite Surah Al-Kafiroon’ and in 2nd rakaat Surah Al-Ikhlas. (Mustahab)
- Males should remove their head cover and not cover the head until free from Ihraam.
- You are still NOT in the state-of-Ihra’m, but READY to enter.
- Remember, before crossing the border of Meqaat you must enter into the State-of-Ihra’m.
- If you are traveling in an airplane, staff will announce before crossing Meqaat.
