What is the sufficient amount of hair to be cut for the one performing 'Umrah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
After I completed the sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) in my 'Umrah, my friend cut some of the ends of my hair, but he did not cut it all. What is the ruling, and what is required of me?

Answer:
As long as he cut some of the hair on your head with the intention of exiting the state of ihram, and you intended this and entrusted him to cut from the hair on your head, taking from the general area of the head from its sides, this is sufficient, if Allah wills. The important thing is the intention: that you intended it and entrusted him to cut it.
