The questioner : Is the intention speaking the talbiyah?
The Shaykh : How? And how is the intention speaking the talbiyah?
The questioner : Is the intention formed before the talbiyah, or... I didn't understand?
The Shaykh : The intention suffices in place of the talbiyah, but the talbiyah is better without a doubt, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was told, "Pray in this blessed valley and say, 'An 'Umrah and a Hajj.'"
The questioner : Is it done in secret?
The Shaykh : No, he does not recite it in secret; he raises his voice with the talbiyah.
The questioner : Does it suffice if one intends?
The Shaykh : If one intends, it suffices. The intention is sufficient; this is the stronger position. The position of the Zahiri school is that it does not suffice; the talbiyah is necessary, and they placed the talbiyah in the position of the takbir of entering ihram.
