The questioner : May Allah reward the honorableThe Shaykh : Is it better for a person to recite the talbiyah with the intention of the pilgrimage when he boards the vehicle or after the two rak'ahs at the miqat? And what is the wording of the talbiyah when he boards the vehicle?
The Shaykh : The more apparent view is that one should recite the talbiyah when he boards the vehicle, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited it when he mounted his mount. If he recites it before that, after the prayer, there is no blame on him. However, since there is leeway in the matter, it is better if he delays it until he boards the vehicle. The form of the talbiyah is to say: "Labbaik Allahumma Hajj" (Here I am, O Allah, for Hajj), if you are performing Hajj, or "Labbaik Allahumma 'Umrah" (Here I am, O Allah, for 'Umrah), if you are performing 'Umrah. "Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik, Labbaik la sharika laka Labbaik, innal hamda wan ni'mata laka wal mulk, la sharika lak" (Here I am, O Allah, here I am. Here I am, You have no partner, here I am. Indeed, praise and blessing are Yours, and dominion, You have no partner).
