Dhikr and Dua.
There is no particular Dhikr or Dua that is always said for Sayee. The teachings of Islam, on the other hand, say that you can say any prayers or petitions you want and send Salawat upon the Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAWW).
So, pilgrims must be very aware of these things if they want their Hajj or Umrah to be valid. If you don’t, you might have to pay an atonement penalty, and if you do something really bad, your umrah or hajj could be cancelled. So, if you are going on a holy pilgrimage or hajj through London umrah packages, you must be very aware of the dos and don’ts of Sayee rituals.
