Umrah in Ramadan 2022
Millions of Muslims from every corner of the world gather in the Grand Mosque to attain nearness to Allah by fasting and worshipping together. It is truly a beautiful view when a sea of people breaks their fast during Iftaar with a mutual objective which is to connect to Allah (SWT).
Umrah is a mystical voyage and pilgrims travel to Makkah to seek the mercy of Allah (SWT) with their heart filled with love and gratitude. It is an enlightening experience for every believer, one that they would remember for a lifetime and be always thankful. Umrah is a blessing throughout the year, but it holds special significance in the sacred month of Ramadan, an experience that every Muslim should try to accomplish.
Benefits of Umrah Ramadan according to hadiths
Following hadith shows the importance of Umrah Ramadan 2022
Al-Bukhaari (1782) and Muslim (1256) narrated that Ibn ‘Abbaas said:
The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to a woman from among the Ansaar – Ibn ‘Abbaas mentioned her name, but I forgot it – “What kept you from performing Hajj with us?” She said: We only have two camels and the father of her son and her son had gone for Hajj on one camel, and he left us the other camel so that we could carry water on it. He said: “When Ramadaan comes, go for ‘Umrah, for ‘Umrah in (that month) is equivalent to Hajj.”
One should understand that Umrah done during the month of Ramadan cannot be a substitute for the obligatory Hajj, that is they are equal in reward, but the former does not replace the latter as a fulfilment of the obligation. Hence, whoever performs Umrah in Ramadan, enjoys the virtue of the place i.e., Mecca and time, which is the blessed Ramadan as we all know that doing Umrah in the month of Ramadan is more complicated.
That is because one may be fasting while performing it or break his fast due to the travelling involved, and then have to make up for it. This is not the case when one performs Umrah during any other month. When it comes to the best time for Umrah, Ramadan holds a special significance and the most significant rewards.
According to another Hadith, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said,
“Perform Umrah in the month of Ramadan, as it’s (reward) is parallel to having a Hajj performed with me.” [BUKHARI]
From the above hadith, we can easily understand that Umrah in Ramadan is equivalent to hajj Performing Umrah in Ramadan carries immense value and religious significance. Umrah is considered a lesser form of Hajj and whoever performs Umrah with pure intention earns the highest pleasure of Allah (SWT).
Tips for Umrah in Ramadan 2022
While the rewards of this ritual is immeasurable, it’s essential to be prepared for this pilgrimage. Here are some suggestions for performing Umrah in Ramadan:
Health Advice
Umrah is one of the few rituals in Islam that requires you to walk for long distances and extended periods; hence, focus on maintaining your health before you leave on your pilgrimage. Keep a small first-aid kit on you at all times that’s got medicines and first-aid supplies such as pain-killers, aspirin, cough or cold medicines, bandages, etc.
Umrah timings
During the month of Ramadan, the place for Tawaf is very crowded, so make sure you keep an eye on the prayer timings during your pilgrimage. It becomes increasingly more crowded after Asr.
As the duration of Tawaf is about an hour, so, by the time you’re done with this ritual, it’s time for Iftar. It isn’t wise to force yourself to perform Umrah in the states of thirst, hunger, and fatigue; therefore, the best time to perform Umrah during this month is in the morning hours.
Taraweeh
This ritual, which is an integral part of the Isha prayers, is one of the main features of Ramadan; hence, you should rest up, gather your strength and wits, and be prepared to offer Isha prayers en masse for a few hours.
Iftar and Suhūr
Make sure you keep a note of your hotel timings for Iftar and Suhūr. To keep your energy up, eat whole-grain foods, fruits, and vegetables, and drink plenty of water. Avoid overeating meat, spicy and junk food, and processed food items; they will increase your stomach’s acidity and put extra stress on your body.
Whole-grain foods, fruits, and vegetables, on the other hand, will provide your body with fibers that are necessary for digestion and building your energy levels. Be mindful of your diet this month.
Things you need to pack
It’s appropriate only to pack the things you need on your trip to keep your luggage on the light-weight side. A mini Quran or a book of supplications is an absolute necessity, along with a mobile phone. This would allow you to prepare the prayers that you’ll offer at various holy sites.
A portable prayer-mat can come in handy in mosques as there’s a chance that you may not find one during busy hours of Salah. During your stay, make it a habit to re-use empty plastic-bottles to refill zam-zam water instead of buying new ones; this not only saves money but also doesn’t create an inconvenience for the cleaning staff.
Try to book the last ten days of Ramadan
Spend the blessed month of Ramadan in the sacred city of Mecca. Perform Umrah in the last 10 days of Ramadan and search for the Laylatul Qadr while worshipping Allah (SWT) and seeking his forgiveness in Haram. The last ten days of Ramadan hold extreme importance during which Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) and his companions used to perform I’tikaaf. The importance of Laylatul Qadr (the night of power) is emphasized in the Quran, and its 97th chapter is entirely dedicated to it.
Indeed, We revealed [the Qur’an] during the Night of Decree. And what can make you know what is the Night of Decree? The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months. The angels and the Spirit descend therein by permission of their Lord for every matter. Peace is until the emergence of dawn. (97:1-5)
