Obligations of Ihram for all Muslims

The obligations of Ihram consist of three important points: - Pure Intention, Talbiyah and the two-piece unstitched cloth for men. The intention of Ihram should be specifically clarified with respect to the act that has been intended to perform - Hajj, Umrah Tamattu or Umrah Mufradah.

For women, their own garment can be considered as Ihram. The cloth of Ihram should be Mubaah (permissible), i.e., should not be made of the skin of a dead animal and the Ihram of men should not be of pure silk.

There are three obligations in Ihram:

•          Niyyah (Intention)
•          Talbiyah
•          Wearing Ihram garments

Niyyah (Intention)

•          While we intend to wear the Ihram, along with the intention of proximity with Allah, it should also be mentally clarified that whether this Ihram is to be worn for Hajj or Umrah, Umrah Mufrada or Umrah-e-Tamattu respectively. It is not necessary to also keep in mind the intention of giving up the prohibited acts but the intention of wearing the Ihram in itself is sufficient.
•          While donning the Ahram-e-Umrah-e-Mufrada, if one thinks or suspects that he would copulate with his wife before performing Sai’i, then obviously his Ahram will be considered invalid and void. This same condition is applicable in the case of Masturbation also.
•          All the acts performed in Umrah or Hajj are considered Prayers, therefore, they should be performed solely with the intention of Obedience to Allah, or rather they should be performed with a pure and dedicated intention of pleasing Allah(S.W.T) itself.

Talbiah

•          Talbiah means to recite the word “Labbaik”,
•          It is compulsory to pronounce the Talbiah correctly but only to the extent which is considered as proper Talbiah by the people. But if the common people do not regard the pronounced word as Talbiah, it is an obligatory precaution to also pronounce the Talbiah the way he can, and alongside, even translate it into his language, and also choose someone to pronounce the Talbiah on his behalf.
•          If a person forgets to recite the Talbiah, or, is not aware of its obligation, then he should return to the Meeqat and wear the Ihram again and recite Talbiah thereafter. And if he has entered the premises of Haram, he should move out of its premises and recite Talbiah, and if he comes to know of this after the time has passed, then the validity of the Umrah of the Pilgrim is doubtful. (It means the chances of the validity of his Umrah are difficult and he must perform the Umrah again to ensure the correctness of his act).

Wearing Ihram Garments

A two piece of unstitched cloth must be wear by the pilgrim in order to execute Umrah. This is compulsory for pilgrims to take on Ihram after reciting talbiyah and making an intention to perform Umrah. For men these two piece of cloth are compulsory, however, for women any cloth can be wear that must cover their body in a whole (i.e. from feet to head). It is not compulsory for women to hide their faces however, if they can do it easily, women must do it.
