Masjid Aisha at Taneem is the nearest الميقات point for people already in مكة who wish to perform an additional العمرة. Located approximately 7.5 km from المسجد الحرام, it is easily reached by taxi (10-15 minutes, 20-30 SAR). At the مسجد, perform الغسل or الوضوء, wear الإحرام garments, make the niyyah for العمرة, begin the التلبية, then return to the Haram for الطواف, السعي, and الحلق/التقصير.
Take a taxi (10-15 minutes, approximately 20-30 SAR) or bus to Masjid Aisha at Taneem, located about 7.5 km northwest of المسجد الحرام. This is the nearest الميقات point for people already inside the Haram boundaries.
Masjid Aisha has washroom and ablution facilities. Perform الغسل (preferred) or at minimum الوضوء. The مسجد is spacious and air-conditioned. Men should change into الإحرام garments here.
These are the most frequent errors pilgrims make during this stage of Umrah.
Scholarly references supporting this guidance from established Islamic sources.
Make the intention for العمرة: 'Labbayk Allahumma Umratan.' Begin reciting the التلبية. All الإحرام restrictions are now in effect. Pray two ركعة of سنة at the مسجد.
Take a taxi or bus back to المسجد الحرام, reciting the التلبية throughout. Upon entering the Haram, stop the التلبية and proceed to begin الطواف.
Perform the standard العمرة: 7 circuits of الطواف (with idtiba and raml for men), pray 2 ركعة, drink زمزم, then perform السعي (7 laps between الصفا and المروة).
After السعي, shave (men) or trim (both) to exit الإحرام. Your العمرة is complete and all الإحرام restrictions are lifted.
