Umrah Guide

Clothing & Ihram

What men and women should keep in mind.

1 min read

Men wear two white, unstitched cloths (izar and rida’) in Ihram and footwear that leaves the upper part of the foot uncovered. The head remains uncovered.

Women wear their usual loose, covering clothing in any colour; face veil (niqab) and gloves are not worn in Ihram.

Outside Ihram we recommend light, breathable clothing and a light jacket for air-conditioned rooms.
