RotaNur Cotton Towel Ihram is the classic type of ihram most often chosen by customers preparing for Umrah. Its 100% cotton towelling absorbs moisture well, feels soft against the skin and, with a balanced total weight of 1250 grams, offers both good coverage and comfort. The two matching seamless pieces are made to be worn as the izar and the rida.
About the Product
Thanks to its looped cotton texture, a towel ihram quickly absorbs sweat and the moisture remaining after wudu, which means the fabric clings less to the skin in the heat of Makkah. A total weight of 1250 grams gives you peace of mind against the see-through problem that very thin products have when wet, without being as heavy as the 1500-gram models. Because of this balance, it is a model we can readily recommend for most seasons to those going on Umrah for the first time. Each piece measures approximately 110×220 centimetres; it wraps comfortably around the waist of an adult of average height and fully covers the shoulders. The fabric softens with every wash and, with proper care, can be used on future journeys as well. The set is sent in a clear zip bag so that it stays clean in your suitcase.

How to Use
- Before travelling, wash the ihram once with unscented detergent and practise wrapping it at home.
- Wrap the izar around your waist so that the ends overlap, fold the top edge inwards and secure it with a belt.
- Drape the rida so that it covers both shoulders; for the practices during tawaf, follow the guidance of your group leader.
- Dry a wet ihram without wringing it, in a shady, well-ventilated place.
- Between uses, fold the ihram and keep it in its bag.
Use on Your Umrah and Hajj Journey
While in ihram, men do not wear stitched clothing; they wear the ihram made of two unstitched sheets, leave their heads uncovered and choose slippers or sandals that leave the top of the foot exposed. Women enter ihram in their usual modest clothing and do not cover their faces or hands. An ihram belt or waist bag can be used to secure the ihram and to carry items such as money and a phone. As applying fragrance is forbidden while in ihram, make sure your care products are unscented. For more information, see our Umrah Guide and Hajj Guide.
Who Is It For?
Ideal for first-time Umrah travellers, those who cannot decide which fabric to choose and those who prefer a familiar towel texture. It can comfortably be used on Umrah trips in spring, autumn and winter. Those who want an extra lightweight set for the summer months can pair this ihram with our muslin model. It is also a safe choice as a gift for a loved one preparing for Umrah for the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 1250-gram ihram thick?
1250 grams is considered a medium thickness among ihrams. It is full enough to give good coverage and not as heavy as the 1500-gram models, which makes it a balanced choice for most seasons.
Does a towel ihram make you sweat in the heat?
Because cotton towelling absorbs moisture well, it does not leave sweat clinging to the skin; still, like any thick fabric, it is not as airy as muslin in the hottest hours. For the summer months, we recommend taking a light spare set with you.
Does it shed lint on the first wash?
New towel products may shed a small amount of surface lint in the first few washes. Washing the ihram once before your journey greatly reduces this.
I am tall – will this size be enough?
110×220 cm is enough for most adults. If you are tall or have a larger build, consider our 1500-gram thick cotton model in a wider size.
Is the belt sold separately?
This product includes only the two-piece ihram. You can add a wide pocket belt or a cloth ihram belt separately, or choose our boxed set that comes with both an ihram and a belt.
