On a Hajj journey, you will need to wash your ihram and clothes by hand at the hotel or at a laundry. Most detergents on the market, however, leave a noticeable perfume on the fabric, which can raise doubts about cloths that will be worn while in ihram. With its formula free of added perfume, RotaNur Unscented Liquid Ihram Detergent was made to clean your ihram cloths and everyday clothes without leaving any scent behind. The large 500 ml bottle was chosen with the needs of those going on Hajj, who will wash two ihram sets in rotation, in mind.
About the Product
The detergent comes in liquid form; it dissolves easily in cold and lukewarm water and, unlike powder detergent, leaves no granules on the fabric when you wash by hand. No perfume or essence has been added. It can be used on cotton towelling, bamboo-fibre and muslin ihram cloths, as well as on underwear, socks and everyday clothes. The bottle cap doubles as a measuring cup, so you can adjust the dose to how dirty the laundry is and the amount of water. We recommend not washing your white ihrams together with coloured clothes.

Using It on Your Umrah and Hajj Journey
While in ihram, applying fragrance to the body, the ihram garments or the place where you sleep is among the prohibitions of ihram. The High Council of Religious Affairs of Diyanet (Türkiye’s Presidency of Religious Affairs) states that scented soap and detergent used only for cleaning, with no intention of perfuming oneself, do not require a penalty, yet it recommends unscented products. This product, made without fragrance, was chosen so that you can meet your cleansing and care needs with peace of mind while in ihram. Wearing a pleasant fragrance before entering ihram, on the other hand, is recommended (mustahab); use your scented products before making the intention for ihram. For details, you can read our Umrah Guide.
Who Is It For?
It is suitable for those going on Hajj who will wash their own ihram during Hajj, for anyone who wants to be sure about the scent of the detergent used in the hotel laundry, and for group members who want to share a detergent in their room. People who are sensitive to fragrance can also use it for their everyday laundry after returning from Hajj.
