Summary

What is obligatory in the umrah ihram is the intention in the heart, while pronouncing it aloud and reciting the talbiyah are recommended. For a vowed umrah, the person adds the word vowed umrah to the intention. The obligatory Islamic umrah should be performed first because its obligation is stronger, followed by the vowed umrah. Umrah can be repeated while in Mecca by going out to the area outside the sacred precinct and making the intention there.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Oleh itu, keutamaan patut diberikan kepada umrah Islam terlebih dahulu. Kemudian, barulah selesaikan umrah nazar pula.
