Strengthen the Heart and Calm the Soul:

After Prophet PBUH was a kid, two angels came to Him and took His heart out and washed it, then put it back. Al-Hafiz Al-Iraqi RA said The reason why angels open the chest of Muhammad SAW and washed it with holy Zamzam was supposed to create Him stronger so the Messenger of Allah can observe the realms of the earth and paradise, hell and heaven.

Zamzam water supplies strength to the heart and calms the individual's soul who takes it. It was proven in the hadith narrated by Abu Dharr RA that Prophet's heart had been washed with ZamZam.

Give Strength to Body:

ZamZam is full of nutrients that an individual could survive only on this holy water without even taking any other solid food. Prophet PBUH asked Abu Dharr, how long have you been there? "I have been here for seven times, he responded".

Then Allah's Messenger said, "What keeps you, nourish?" He explained, "Zamzam is the one thing I drink, but I got so fat I got folds in my stomach.

Step by Step Guide How to Perform Umrah

I wish I go to Umrah with my family. Therefore, I am collecting some information about it. I realize after that Umrah is not compulsory for us. It is included in the greatest Sunnah of our Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him). Many people think that Umrah is complete in two holy cities, whereas such is not valid. There is no need to go Madinah because Umrah is performed in Makkah.
I ask my friend, who recently performed Umrah with my own family. He tells me that Umrah is consists of only four parts, which are performed in Makkah. But Madinah is such an important city for us because it is a good chance for us to earn more and more rewards to visit the second holy mosque (Masjid al Nabvi).
He also tells me about Umrah packages due to which I can get the cheapest flights, transportation, and accommodations easily without facing any difficulties.

 Sa’yee

Sa’i means walking from Safa to Marwah and back seven times. These are the two famous hills that are located in Al-Masjid Al-Haraam (the Grand Mosque). The distance between Safa and Al-Marwah is about 400m. Muslim men should fast walk between the two hills, but it is recommended for women to complete it with normal speed.

This track is mention there with green lights. This rite is started from Safa and end at Marwah.
The Sa‘i between Safa and Al-Marwah is one of the pillars of Hajj and ‘Umrah (lesser pilgrimage); Allah The Exalted says (what means):{Indeed, As-Safa, and Al-Marwah are among the symbols of Allah. So whoever makes Hajj to the House or performs ‘Umrah – there is no blame upon him for walking between them. And whoever volunteers good – then indeed, Allah is Appreciative and Knowing.} [Quran 2:158]

 Qasar / Halaq

After the Sa’yee, Umrah is not done yet when the pilgrim doesn’t shave the head or trim the hair.
Shaving the head entirely is recommended for males. While trimming the hairs is the best way for females to complete their Umrah.
To cut the hair, only one inch is included in the method of trimming.
After performing this last ritual, Umrah is completed for us.
