umrah
Umrah is often referred to as the lesser pilgrimage. Unlike Hajj, which is a mandatory pillar of Islam and must be performed during a specific time of the year, Umrah can be undertaken at any time. It carries a connotation of personal spiritual renewal and devotion rather than the communal obligation associated with Hajj.
In English, the most natural verbs to pair with umrah are perform, undertake, or go on. Using "do umrah" is common in casual speech but "perform umrah" is the standard formal and religious phrasing.
Because it is a specific religious rite, it is treated as a countable noun when referring to the act of completing the pilgrimage (e.g., "He has performed three umrahs"), though it is often used as an uncountable concept when discussing the journey or the requirement in general.
