Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on verbalizing the intention for 'Umrah or Hajj? And are there specific acts of worship in which it is permissible to verbalize the intention?

Answer:
Verbalizing the intention for 'Umrah and Hajj is not established in the texts. Rather, what is established is verbalizing the intended act, so one says, "I intend Hajj" or "I intend 'Umrah." One verbalizes the intended act, but does not say, "O Allah, I intend Hajj" or "I intend 'Umrah." This is what is established. Yes.
