Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:
Entering the masjid → This can take 5–10 minutes depending on the crowd.
First sight of the Ka‘bah → A breathtaking moment. Take 5–10 minutes to pause, make du‘a, and express gratitude.
Tawaf (7 rounds) → Expect 30–90 minutes, depending on the time of day and how busy it is.
2 raka‘ah behind Maqam Ibrahim → Finding a space, praying, and making du‘a usually takes 10–15 minutes.
Drinking Zamzam → Around 5 minutes to refresh yourself.
Heading to Safa for Sa’i → Reaching the starting point takes about 5 minutes.
Sa’i (7 laps between Safa & Marwah) → This can take another 45–90 minutes.
Shaving or trimming hair → Final step, 10–15 minutes outside the masjid.
In total, Umrah takes between 2 to 4 hours depending on your fitness level, the crowd, and how many breaks you take.
Do use a Umrah guide which will explain to you everything step by step, so you can perform Umrah correctly and focus on the blessings instead of stressing over the details.
