Maintain The Talbiya Loudly (Men)
- Keep saying the Talbiya from the miqat until you enter the Haram as a primary form of dhikr.
- Men should recite it loudly to encourage others while women should keep a lower voice.
Be In Wudu And Observe Ihram
- Perform wudu before starting tawaf because tawaf is like prayer and requires purity.
- It's acceptable to delay performing umrah after assuming ihram, but remain in ihram until you begin tawaf.
Expose Right Shoulder For Opening Tawaf
- Men should uncover their right shoulder only for the opening tawaf (tawaf al-qudum) and cover it immediately after finishing tawaf.
- This exposure is limited to that specific tawaf and ends when tawaf is complete.
