*Intention and Talbiyah
Now uncover your head and declare your intention Saying “O Allah! I intend to perform Hajj. Please make it easy for me and accept it from me. Amen.” After that immediately Talbiya three times and as often possible which men should say in loud voice but women should say in subdued tone. Once ihram is worn all the prohibitions will be applicable.
