How many obligatory acts (wājib) are there in Umrah, and what are they?

Q: How many obligatory acts (wājib) are there in Umrah, and what are they?

There are three; they are: (1) Putting on the Ihram garments and making the intention for Umrah before crossing the Miqat. (2) Performing Sa‘i in the area between the two hills of Safa and Marwah. Some scholars have said that this is a rukn, meaning obligatory. (3) Cutting the hair (shaving the head or shortening the hair).
