Umrah is a sacred pilgrimage to Makkah that Muslims can undertake at any time of the year, unlike Hajj, which has specific dates. For Muslims living in the UK, mainly in cities like Birmingham, Umrah is a non-secular journey that many want to fulfil at least once in their lifetime.

Umrah is a deeply religious journey that Muslims perform to are seeking for the blessings of Allah. Unlike Hajj, which is obligatory once in an entire life for folks who can have the funds for it, Umrah is non-compulsory but surprisingly profitable. Every 12 months, heaps of Muslims from the United Kingdom travel to the holy cities of Makkah and Madinah to perform Umrah.
