Ihram for both men and women 

Ihram is not just restricted to dressing in a certain way and wearing specific clothing items but it is also about making the intention for the pilgrimage. It also involves abstaining from some things that are prohibited for the time being, just as one does during fasting.

Let’s discuss the difference in ihram for men and women. 

For men, you start by performing ghusl, cutting your nails, and trimming any hair on the face or body that is needed. Then the ihram is worn which consists of two pieces of cloth that cover the upper part and the lower part of the body separately. The upper garment is referred to as ‘Rida’ and the lower garment is termed as ‘Izar’. It is not allowed to wear any undergarments underneath the ihram so it is best to buy good quality, thick white garments that are long enough that cover you from top to bottom. 

For women, you start by performing ghusl, trimming hair, and cutting your nails. For clothing, an abaya is worn with a hijab which covers the full body except for the face. It is best to wear a plain abaya in black or white color– without any embellishments.
