Sifat al-Hajj wa’l-‘Umrah (Description of Hajj and ‘Umrah)
Can You Shave Your Head or Cut Your Hair Yourself When Exiting Ihram?
It is permissible for the pilgrim, man or woman, who is doing Hajj or `Umrah to cut his or her own hair when exiting Ihram following Hajj or `Umrah, and it is also permissible for him or her to cut the hair of another person who wants to exit Ihram.42,444Is It Sunnah to End Tawaf with Takbir?
The pilgrim comes in line with the Black Stone at the end of the seventh circuit of Tawaf.

Exiting Ihram of Hajj, for both men and women, comes after stoning Jamrat Al-`Aqabah and shaving the head or cutting the hair for men, but women have no option but cutting the hair. Exiting Ihram of `Umrah, for both men and women, comes after finishing their Tawaf and Sa`i, and shaving the head or cutting the hair for men, but women have no option but cutting the hair and not shaving.33,688Is Stoning the Jamarat Part of Hajj?
Stoning the Jamarat is one of the obligatory rituals of Hajj which is clearly mentioned in the Sunnah.49,933What to Do If You Start Sa`i from Al-Marwah?

If someone performs Sa`i before offering Tawaf, he does not have to repeat his Sa`i. A man asked the Prophet about performing Sa`i before Tawaf, and the Prophet replied, “There is no sin.”9,133Can We Look at the Kab`ah during Tawaf?
There is no authentic Hadith about the virtue of looking at the Ka`bah, and simply looking at it is not an act of worship for which a person will be rewarded.28,995How Long Should Pilgrims Stay in Mina after Offering Udhiyah?
The period for which the pilgrim must stay in Mina after the day of Sacrifice is two days, namely the 11th and 12th of Dhul-Hijjah. However, the 13th of Dhul-Hijjah is optional and one is not obliged to spend it in Mina or stone the Jamarat; rather it is recommended only.36,473When to Enter Ihram for Hajj Tamattu`
The one who is doing Hajj Tamattu` enters Ihram on the eighth day of Dhul-Hijjah from the place where he is staying.
