Think about what you would need during a delay or if a checked bag arrives later.

Ready for your route

Ihram and worship

Keep items you need before arrival accessible. Confirm Miqat timing and personal religious questions with a qualified guide.

Your main suitcase

Clothing and everyday care

Plan around the weather, laundry and hotel changes. You may already own what you need.

If it applies

Children and older parents

Adapt the list to each person. Check airline and screening rules for feeding supplies and mobility equipment.

One last check

Before you leave home

Packing is only one part of being ready. Confirm the arrangements behind the journey too.

Before the suitcase closes

Three checks that deserve a pause.

Power banks stay in cabin baggage

FAA guidance requires spare lithium batteries, including power banks, in carry on baggage. Protect them from damage and short circuits, and check your airline’s limits and handling rules.

Read FAA battery guidance

Check liquids before screening

Follow the current TSA rules for ordinary cabin liquids. Medically necessary liquids have separate screening provisions; tell the officer and check the official guidance. Your transit airport may have its own rules.

Read TSA liquids guidance Read TSA medication guidance

Check every airline on the route

Cabin and checked bag allowances can differ between carriers and fare types. Confirm dimensions, weight, special items and what to do if your cabin bag is checked at the gate.

A REMINDER FOR THE JOURNEY

“Indeed, the first House [of worship] established for mankind was that at Makkah - blessed and a guidance for the worlds.”

Choose only what helps

Useful supplies for your packing list.

These are individual retailer recommendations, not a prepacked kit. Check seller details, suitability and delivery dates. A suitable item you already own may do the same job.

Men’s Ihram cloths

An option if you need a set. Check the size, fabric and comfort before choosing.

Secure waist pouch

Keep small essentials together. Use an existing secure bag if it works for you.

Unscented cleansing bar

Check ingredients and your own Ihram guidance before choosing a care product.

Travel adapter

Check your chargers and the outlets on your route. An adapter does not convert voltage.

Laundry bags

Separate worn clothing during hotel changes. A reusable bag can also work.

Small toiletry bottles

Useful for decanting suitable products within the applicable liquid limits.

Family first aid organizer

Check the contents against your needs. It does not replace prescribed medicine or medical care.

A lighter load of questions

Know before you pack.

Does every person need everything on this list?

No. Adapt it to age, health needs, the route, the weather and your own religious guidance. Check items you have packed or decided you do not need. The progress count is not a travel readiness check.

Where should essential medicine go?

Keep essential medicines accessible in cabin baggage, with appropriate documents and packaging. Check screening rules and whether your medicine is permitted at your destination and transit points. Ask your pharmacist or clinician about your own needs.

Can I put a power bank in my checked bag?

No. FAA guidance places spare lithium batteries, including power banks, in cabin baggage. Check your airline’s capacity and use restrictions, and tell the airline if a cabin bag containing one is taken for gate checking.

Do my checklist choices go to an Umrah agency?

No. Item checks stay on this page, or in this browser if you choose to save them. They are not sent as a Journey Planner request and do not provide marketing or agency contact consent.

Does KaabaSharif ship these items as one kit?

No. These are individual recommendations. Purchases, delivery and returns are handled by the retailer shown on the item page.
