There are some of the definite rules and regulations that are linked with this religious journey which needs to be abided by every woman who does have the urge to perform the best Umrah Tour of their life.

Why does Umrah Tour seem significant for everyone?

It is believed that Allah (SWT) rewards pilgrims with wealth as payment for the money they spent on the strenuous Umrah pilgrimage. Perform the Hajj and Umrah back-to-back because, according to Ibn Abbas, the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) stated, “Perform Hajj and Umrah consecutively; for they remove poverty and sin as bellows removes impurity from iron.” [Hadith No. 2631, Book of the Rites of Hajj, Sunan An-Nasa'i, Vol. 3]
