'''Zamzam''' (Arabic {{ia|زَمزَم}}) refers to the most renowned water well located within the [[al-Masjid al-Haram]] in [[Mecca]], situated approximately 21 meters from the sacred Black Stone ([[al-Hajar al-Aswad]]). According to historical accounts, the Zamzam spring emerged miraculously by divine will to provide water for [[Isma'il]] (a) and his mother, [[Hajar]]. The origin of the city of [[Mecca]] and the reconstruction of the [[Ka'ba]] are believed to be closely linked to the miraculous emergence of the Zamzam spring.

For centuries, the inhabitants of Mecca depended on the Zamzam well for their water supply. However, over time, the well's presence diminished, and it eventually became obscured. After a long time, the responsibility of [[siqaya]] (water provision) for the Ka'ba reached [['Abd al-Muttalib]], the grandfather of the [[Prophet Muhammad (s)]], and the Zamzam well was dug by him, and its water gushed forth once again.
