Go up Safa (or approach it), recite the verse “Inna ṣ-Ṣafā wa-l-Marwa…” then “Abdaʾu bimā badaʾa Llāhu bih”, once at the start. Facing the Kaaba, say the Safa dhikr three times with supplications in between. Walk to Marwa: Safa → Marwa counts 1, Marwa → Safa counts 2, and so on up to 7, which ends at Marwa. Between the two green markers, men speed up, women walk normally. On Marwa, same dhikr as on Safa.
Schools differAblution is not a condition of saʿi (it is recommended): a woman whose period starts after tawaf may complete the saʿi. Saʿi is a pillar of Umrah for the majority (a compensable obligation for Hanafis). Schools differ on a saʿi started from Marwa: as a precaution, always start from Safa.
Supplications
إِنَّ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةَ مِن شَعَائِرِ اللَّهِ
Inna ṣ-Ṣafā wa-l-Marwata min shaʿāʾiri Llāh
Safa and Marwa are among the rites of Allah (approaching Safa, the first time).
Quran 2:158
أَبْدَأُ بِمَا بَدَأَ اللهُ بِهِ
Abdaʾu bimā badaʾa Llāhu bih
I begin with what Allah began with.
Muslim 1218, hadith of Jabir (the Prophet’s ﷺ pilgrimage)
اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ. لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ. لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ، أَنْجَزَ وَعْدَهُ، وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ، وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ
Allāhu akbar (×3). Lā ilāha illa Llāhu waḥdahu lā sharīka lah, lahu l-mulku wa lahu l-ḥamdu wa huwa ʿalā kulli shayʾin qadīr. Lā ilāha illa Llāhu waḥdah, anjaza waʿdah, wa naṣara ʿabdah, wa hazama l-aḥzāba waḥdah
Allah is the greatest (×3). None has the right to be worshipped but Allah alone, without partner; His is the dominion and the praise, and He is able to do all things. None has the right to be worshipped but Allah alone; He fulfilled His promise, helped His servant and alone defeated the confederates. (On Safa and Marwa, three times, facing the Kaaba.)
Muslim 1218, hadith of Jabir (the Prophet’s ﷺ pilgrimage)
رَبِّ اغْفِرْ وَارْحَمْ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْأَعَزُّ الْأَكْرَمُ
Rabbi ghfir wa-rḥam innaka anta l-aʿazzu l-akram
Lord, forgive and have mercy, You are the Mightiest, the Most Generous (between the green markers).
