Dua List for Umrah in Ramadan
As Umrah in Ramadan is one of the most spiritually rewarding acts of worship, you must be ready to make the most of this golden opportunity. Keep your duas ready and prepare to immerse yourself entirely in the remembrance and dhikr of the Almighty.
Every year, thousands of UK Muslims have the opportunity to perform this pilgrimage during the blessed month. If you are among them and looking for Ramadan umrah packages, many travel agencies in the UK are providing budget-friendly umrah packages. These packages include accommodation, meals, a tour guide and transportation.
Dua at Miqat before Entering Ihram
One of the most important steps of Umrah is entering the state of ihram. This state prepares you to be the guest of the Almighty through complete spiritual and physical purification. You must enter this state at Miqat or before crossing it. As you enter Ihram, recite the following supplication.
“Here I am, O Allah, ready to perform Umrah.”
Dua for Intention
For umrah, entering the state of Ihram is the first ritual. All the pilgrims must enter this state and make their intention to perform the pilgrimage clear. Reciting the following dua is a great way to convey your intention as you start your journey in the blessed month of Ramadan.
“O Allah, make my Umrah easy for me and accept it from me”.
Dua to Recite as you begin Tawaf
Performing Tawaf is one of the most dreamlike experiences for Muslims. As you start circumambulating around the Holy Kaaba, you are reminded of your real purpose in life. It restores your faith and brings you a lot closer to the religion and the Almighty. Here is a dua that you can recite as you begin your Tawaf.
“In the name of Allah, Allah is the Greatest”.
Dua to Recite Between the Yemeni Corner and Black Stone
This is quite a sacred spot and the perfect place to pour your heart out before the Almighty. Although there is no specified dua to recite during Umrah, there is a Sunnah dua that you recite at Rukn al-Yamani.
“Our Lord, grant us goodness in this world and the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.”
Dua to Recite during Saee
After tawaf muslims arrive at Safa and Marwa for Sai. You start this ritual by reciting this dua:
Surely Safa and Marwah are among the signs of Allah. I begin with that which Allah began. He began (his Saee) at Mount Safa, climbing it until he could see the House. He then faced the Qiblah, repeating:
“There is none worthy of worship but Allah, and Allah is the Most Great. Then he said: None has the right to be worshipped but Allah alone, Who has no partner, His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He can do all things. None has the right to be worshipped but Allah alone. He fulfilled His Promise, He aided His slave, and He alone defeated the Confederates.”
Dua for Laylatul Qadr during Umrah
As you perform Umrah during Ramadan, make sure that you don’t neglect the most blessed night. Ask for forgiveness and the blessings of the Almighty on Laylatul Qadr. Muslims, no matter where in the world, immerse themselves in worship on this night. You should also make the most of it at the pilgrimage sites. Here is a Sunnah supplication that you can recite on Laylatul Qadr.
“O Allah, You are Forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive me.”
Dua for Forgiveness and Acceptance of Good Deeds
“Our Lord, indeed we have believed, so forgive our sins and protect us from the punishment of the fire.”
“Our Lord, accept from us. Indeed, you are the All-hearing, the All-knowing”.
“Our Lord, forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in faith.”
If you are performing umrah in Ramadan from the UK, your umrah visa must be valid for six months.
Conclusion
Performing Umrah in Ramadan is more than a physical journey; it is a spiritual transformation. With the right duas, sincere intentions, and thoughtful preparation, pilgrims travelling from the UK can experience unmatched closeness to Allah. Remember that the true essence of Umrah lies in humility, prayer, and complete trust in Allah’s mercy.
