Many travelers are unaware that Saudi Arabia now allows eligible visitors to perform Umrah using a Tourist Visa. In fact, for many pilgrims, the Tourist Visa is often the easier and more cost-effective option.
For every Muslim preparing to perform Umrah or Hajj, entering the state of Ihram is one of the most important steps of the journey. Understanding the rules of Ihram helps pilgrims perform their worship correctly and avoid mistakes that may affect their Umrah.
