Discovered by Hajer, the second wife of Prophet Ibrahim, and her infant son, Prophet Ismail, the well of Zamzam is considered as a living miracle that has provided pilgrims with a continuous water supply for over 4000 years.
According to the Islamic history, Hajer was looking for water to quench the thirst of her son. Therefore, she ran between the hills of Safa and Marwa.
By the end of her seventh round, water miraculously sprouted from underground and kept flowing until Hajer said 'Zam Zam' which means stop flowing.
Hence, drinking this miraculous water became recommended in Islam as Prophet Mohammed, peace be upon him, encouraged Muslims not to miss drinking Zamzam water during Hajj and Umrah. 2025 Hajj Procedures
