Useful things for Hajj and Umrah. Life hacks for Umrah and Hajj A minimal, but at the same time optimal set of things for the pilgrimage: 1. Underwear and socks. 2 pairs. To change. The best option is made of natural fabrics, so that there is good breathability. 3. 2 cotton T-shirts, I took white to wear under a white kamis. Choose spacious, light, breathable options. 4. At least two trousers, which I wear under the kamis. We give preference to natural fabrics - linen, cotton, viscose. The looser the trousers, the better - the main thing in trousers is comfort, so that they do not hinder movement during worship. 5. Arafatka. It is used to protect the head and face from the sun, sand and cold from air conditioners. Also take at least 2 to change them, while one is being washed and dried, we put on the other. And so on in turn. Very convenient and optimal! 7. Ihram - 2 pieces of white fabric that are worn in the state of ihram. These garments symbolize the purity of pilgrims' thoughts and their equality before the Almighty. You can buy luxury quality ihrams from us (follow the link under this video?). They are made of 100% medium-density cotton, which provides excellent air permeability and at the same time does not show through. 8. Ihram is usually fixed with a belt bag, in which you can put your phone, money and anything else you personally need. Therefore, do not forget about this small detail either! 9. Kamis - a long shirt. The ideal option for men's clothing in Arab countries. It is important that your kamis is wide enough to not restrict movement. You can choose any length that is comfortable for you. It is also better to choose kamis from natural fabrics, a small amount of synthetics is acceptable. In my wardrobe, the basic colors are white, black, blue. 10. I also take short shirts with me, since long ones may not always be comfortable to wear. (?) 11. Just in case, I take a sweatshirt with me in case it gets chilly. (?) 12. Regarding footwear - when making the pilgrimage, be prepared for the fact that you will have to walk a lot. Therefore, choose comfortable shoes with a cushioned sole. Do not buy new shoes - there is a risk of rubbing blisters and thereby causing yourself discomfort. Give preference to proven and comfortable shoes. For me, these are two pairs - the first is flip-flops, I wear them in a state of ihram, since shoes should not cover the heels, ankles and toes. In a normal state, it is more convenient for me to wear the second pair of shoes - these are lightweight sports sneakers. I also recommend taking a backpack or shoe bag with you so that you can carry shoes with you if necessary.
