Essential answers regarding Ziyarat bookings, visa, hotels, and services.
Q. What are the main pillars (Arkan) of Umrah?
The two main pillars of Umrah are Tawaf (circling the Holy Kaaba seven times) and Sa'i (walking between Safa and Marwah seven times). These rituals are essential for completing your Umrah.
Q. Can I visit Makkah and Madinah on a Tourist Visa?
Yes. Eligible visitors with a Saudi Tourist Visa can visit Makkah to perform Umrah and Madinah for Ziyarat, subject to current Saudi regulations.
Q. Why are stones thrown at Jamarat?
Pilgrims throw pebbles at the Jamarat to symbolize rejecting the temptations of Shaytan.
Q. What is the weather like during Hajj?
Saudi Arabia can be very hot. Drink plenty of water, wear light clothing, and avoid direct sunlight whenever possible.
Are meals provided during the pilgrimage?
Q. What is Halq or Taqsir?
After completing Tawaf and Sa'i, men shave or trim their hair, while women trim a small portion of their hair. This marks the completion of Umrah.
Q. Are there specific airports for entering and leaving Saudi Arabia on an Umrah Visa?
No. Pilgrims traveling on an Umrah Visa can enter and leave Saudi Arabia through any international or regional airport approved by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
This gives pilgrims the flexibility to choose the most convenient travel route. Whether you arrive at King Abdulaziz International Airport (Jeddah), Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport (Madinah), King Khalid International Airport (Riyadh), or another approved airport, you can complete your Umrah pilgrimage and depart from the airport that best suits your travel plans, provided your journey follows the Saudi Umrah Visa regulations.
At Alif Hajj and Umrah Services, Nagpur, India, we assist pilgrims with Saudi Umrah Visa processing, Umrah packages from India, flight bookings, hotel accommodation in Makkah and Madinah, airport transfers, and complete Hajj and Umrah travel services for a smooth and comfortable journey.
