Things to do before wearing Ihram:
Before wearing the Ihram garments, complete general personal grooming tasks (cut nails, trim hair, shave unwanted body hair) and take a full bath (ghusl) properly.
The two necessary (Wajib) acts after wearing Ihram:
Reciting the Talbiyah after wearing Ihram is mandatory. If someone does not recite the Talbiyah, their Ihram will not be valid.
Men should recite the Talbiyah aloud, while women should recite it softly.

The two necessary (Wajib) acts of Umrah
Intention (Niyyah) for Sa'i: Before starting Sa'i, make the intention to perform Sa'i for the sake of Allah.
Start Sa'i from Safa Hill: Go to Safa hill and face the Kaaba. Then, recite the following verse:
Verse: إِنَّ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةَ مِن شَعَائِرِ اللَّهِ ۖ فَمَنْ حَجَّ الْبَيْتَ أَوِ اعْتَمَرَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِ أَن يَطَّوَّفَ بِهِمَا ۚ وَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرًا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ شَاكِرٌ عَلِيمٌِ
Praise and Supplication on Safa Hill: While standing on Safa, face the Kaaba, raise your hands, and praise Allah with the following:
Supplication:
اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ اَللهُ اَكْبَر
Then recite the following supplication three times:
Supplication: لَا اِلَهَ اِلَّا اللهُ وَاللهُ اَكْبَر – لَا اِلَهَ اِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَهُ – لَهُ المُلْكُ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْيِى وَ يُمِيْتُ وَ هُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيئ قَدِيْر
Walk from Safa to Marwa: After making supplication, begin walking towards Marwa. While walking, you will pass a green-marked area.
During this, recite the following supplication:
Supplication: رَبِّ اغْفِرْ وَارْحَمْ وَ اَنْتَ الْاَعَزُّ الْاَكْرَمُ
Upon reaching Marwa hill, face the Kaaba and recite the following prayer again:
Supplication: لَا اِلَهَ اِلَّا اللهُ وَاللهُ اَكْبَر – لَا اِلَهَ اِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَهُ – لَهُ المُلْكُ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْيِى وَ يُمِيْتُ وَ هُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيئ قَدِيْر
After completing the Sa'i between Safa and Marwa, make the following supplication to Allah:
Supplication: رَبَّنَا تَقَبَّلْ مِنَّا اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ السَّمِيْعُ الَعَلِيْمُ – وَ تُبْ عَلَيْنَا اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحَيْمُ
2. Shaving the head or cutting the hair
Shaving the head or trimming the hair is wajib (obligatory) after completing Umrah. After that, the pilgrims will become halal (permissible to exit the state of Ihram).
May Allah, the Lord of all worlds, grant everyone the ability to perform Umrah and Hajj at His sacred house. Ameen.
