    A Rida (Arabic: رداء) is the Ihram garment which is draped over the shoulder, covering the upper portion of the body. The entire upper part of the body should be covered at all times, except during Tawaf al-Umrah and Tawaf al-Qudum, where the right shoulder is uncovered. Generally, any type of upper garment can be referred to as a Rida.
