The Blessed Water of Zamzam

Muslim Hands

Did you know that Zamzam means 'to gather together' and 'Stop! Stop!' - because Hajar (as) gathered the water in her hands, afraid it would seep away. Watch the below video to learn more about this miraculous water.

We hope you enjoyed the above video - please do check out the rest of our Hajj 2022 video series!

Also, remember to share this beneficial knowledge with friends and family! As the Prophet (saw) said, 'Whoever guides someone to goodness will have a reward like one who did it'. [Muslim]

We pray we all get the chance to visit Makkah and Madinah in person, amin!
