Hajj & Umrah

Planning for Hajj & Umrah? Your Complete Dress Guide

When preparing for Hajj and Umrah, we not only consider the right essentials in our bag but also our overall well-being. One of them is clothing - the most modest of all. It's the preparation of choosing clothing where one might miss out on modesty and comfort.

Thus, we at ANA help your journey with the right set of clothing.  For women especially, a Hajj & Umrah dress should strike the perfect balance between comfort, practicality and modesty. It should be lightweight, simple yet modest and comfortable enough for Tawaaf under the sun, long hours of prayer, and walking between Safa and Marwa, so you can truly embrace the sacred experience that thousands dream of. 

“Lightweight, breathable and so comfy, I didn’t feel like I was layering at all during Umrah.”

That’s how one of our ANA customers described her experience in our prayer dress. And honestly, that’s what we aim for, clothes that feel as natural as your own skin, even during the longest days of Hajj or Umrah. We realize and understand how meaningful and blessed your journey is. Our clothing is designed with your needs and comfort in mind. It's the epitome of modesty.  From lightweight modal Abayas to cotton prayer dresses, every piece is designed with respect for the changing climate and is also easy to customize. Our collection focuses on breathable and easy-to-wear options so you can walk with confidence on your feet. Whether it’s Hajj or Umrah, let us worry about your attire so you get to focus on your worship without worrying about practicality or compliance.

What is an Ihram for Women?

Unlike men, who wear two unstitched white pieces of cloth as ihram, women do not have any specific dress code for Hajj or Umrah. They can wear clean and comfortable clothes, keeping in mind to protect their awrah. The goal is to wear something comfortable, lightweight and simple enough to uphold the dignity of the journey. 

So choosing the right outfit does matter. It helps you stay focused on your journey with comfort and ease.

Why Does Choosing the Right Outfit Matter? 

The truth is, finding the right outfit for Hajj or Umrah isn’t easy. The weather can be harsh, the days are long and comfort is non-negotiable. Yet, most options on the market are either too simple, too heavy or lack a personal touch.

This is where ANA truly steps in to support your journey. Our Hajj & Umrah dresses are thoughtfully made from light, breathable cotton and soft modal fabrics that feel gentle against the skin, even in warm climates. They’re tailored to give you a comfortable fit while still leaving room for easy movement, so you never feel restricted during long hours of worship or travel. What makes them special is the option to personalize, allowing you to express your own style without compromising modesty. With ANA, you get modesty, comfort, and practicality beautifully combined so you can focus on your experience with complete ease.
