Dr. Ahmad Abdul-Qaadir Al-Muhandiss indicates that the results of
chemical analyses showthat Zamzam Water is pure water, without color
or smell, has a distinct taste, and its hydrogen exponent is 7.5,
indicating that it is alkaline to some extent.
A study conducted in American laboratories showed that traces of
thirty elements were identifiedin Zamzam water by means of energizing
neutrons. Some of these elements scored less than 0.01.
After matching up the chemical analysis to international
specifications, especially to the specifications of the World
HealthOrganization )WHO(, results proved the portability of
Zamzamwater as well as its beneficial effect on the body health.
Additionally, sodium is very high in Zamzam water and the
international specifications do not put a limit to the measurement of
its composition.

This is an Analysis of a study conducted in the laboratory of the
Department of Water and Waste Water Treatment, the Western Province,
Saudi Arabia )I4ooH.(
Zamzam water has also been treated by ultraviolet rays, and microbes
have no place to survive in it, which means that Zamzam water
preserves its taste and is not a congenial environment for bacteria.
According to various chemical analyses, dry weather make: Zamzam more
saline through evaporation, which is, with Allaah's might, good for
the human body.
In conclusion, it becomes clear that we should believe in the
Prophet's miraclesand that heas described by Allaah)what meant(:"Nor
does he speakof )his own( desire. It is only Inspiration that is
inspired."]Quran 53: 3-41[
Prophet Muhammadsaid:"Zamzam water is a lavish meal and a great

it is a Sunnah to Drink Zamzam water,wash with it, and splash it on a
sick person.
The Benefits of Drinking Zamzam Water
Ibn 'Abbaassaid: "The peopleof Makkah used to be the fastest when it
comes to sprinting, and the most powerful when it comes to wrestling,
but as soon as they stopped drinking Zamzamwater, they started to
suffer froma disease in their legs."
He also said that the Messenger of Allaahhad said:"Zamzam water is
what one intends to drink for. When one drinks it to be healed, Allaah
heals him; when one drinks it be full, Allaah makes him full; and when
one drinks it to quench his thirst, Allaah quenches it."]Ahmad and Ibn

water".
All the above proves the authenticity of the narration:"Zamzam water
is what one intends to drink for." Additionally, many Islamic scholars

and he became the best among the scholars in his era.

had been said about it, and when I drank it, I had no doubt about its
amazing effect."
It is also true that Imaam Shaafi'ifelt its tangible results whenhe
drank Zamzam water in order to be a knowledgeable person and a good
arrow shooter, fittingnine out of ten targets at a time.
Al-Ajmisaid that when drinking Zamzam water one should ask for
forgiveness from sins, one may say: "O Allaah! It came to my knowledge
that your Prophetsaid, 'Zamzam water is what one intends to drink it
for.' O Allaah! I am drinking it to forgive me. O Allaah! Forgive
me."Besides, when someone drinks it to be healed, it is good to say:
"O Allaah! I am drinking it to be healed. O Allaah! Heal me."

water outside Makkah according to the four juristic schools, and that
it is even recommended by Imaam Maalik and Imaam Shaafi'ee.

Prophetwrote to Suhayl Ibn 'Amr: 'If you receive my message at night,
do not wait till the morning, and if you receive it in the morning do
not wait till night; just immediately send me some Zamzam water.'
Then, Suhail's wife with the help of his grandfather, Ayoob Ibn
'Abdullaah, and their maids carried Zamzam water at night…"]Abu Moosaa

Attaastated that Ka'bah Al-Ahbaar used to carry it to ancient Syria.
'Aa'ishahcarried Zamzam in bottles for sick people. The Prophetalso
carried it in leather bags and used to pour it on the sick and give it
to them as a drink. ]Al-Faakihi[
