Leaving the verbal declaration of the rites at the miqat and the validity of 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, I was with a group performing 'Umrah, and at the miqat I reminded them that the one in ihram should raise his voice and say, "Labbaik Allahumma 'Umrah," but I did not repeat it for myself; rather, I was occupied with reminding them. What is the validity of my action?
Answer:
Your action is valid. Saying "Labbaik Allahumma 'Umrah" or "Labbaik Allahumma Hajjan" is a recommended practice (sunnah). Leaving it does not affect the validity of the act. The issue is the intention (niyyah) for the rite, which is in the heart, and it is obligatory.
