The creation of the Umrah Companion Cards wasn’t just about designing a product—it was about crafting a tool that would genuinely help people on their spiritual journey. Every step of the design process was focused on making Umrah easier to understand and more spiritually enriching. Here’s how these cards came to life.
Research & Design Process
The process began with identifying the gaps in existing Umrah guides. While there were many available, none offered a comprehensive understanding of the significance behind each ritual. We wanted to create something that not only provided instructions but also helped pilgrims feel a deeper connection with the worship. The research phase involved studying religious texts, consulting knowledgeable scholars, and reviewing existing guides to ensure we were creating a resource that was both accurate and meaningful.
Collaboration and Feedback
Once we had the first draft of the cards, we shared them with close friends and family members who had performed Umrah. Their feedback was invaluable. They shared insights about usability, readability, and the clarity of the explanations. We made several adjustments based on their input, refining the content and ensuring that the cards were simple to use and spiritually enriching.
Finalizing the Design
After many iterations and fine-tuning, we finalized the design. The cards were made to withstand the harsh conditions of travel, and the lanyard-friendly feature ensured that pilgrims could keep the cards with them at all times. The compact size of the cards made them easy to carry without being cumbersome. We made sure that each card was clear, concise, and visually appealing, with just the right amount of information to guide pilgrims through each stage of their journey.
In Summary
The Umrah Companion Cards are the result of months of research, collaboration, and a deep passion to create a resource that would make Umrah more accessible and meaningful for everyone. In the next blog, we’ll explore why these cards are essential for every pilgrim.
