'''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, [[Hagar]]. 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. The rediscovery and restoration of the well were later entrusted to [[~~Abdu~~ al-Muttalib]], the grandfather of the [[Prophet Muhammad]] (s), who was responsible for re-excavating it, thus allowing the water to flow once again.

The rediscovery and restoration of the well were later entrusted to [[Abd al-Muttalib]], the grandfather of the [[Prophet Muhammad (s)]], who was responsible for re-excavating it, thus allowing the water to flow once again.

Zamzam water holds profound religious significance for the people of [[Mecca]] and the broader Muslim community. The [[Prophet Muhammad (s)|Prophet Muhammad]] (s) often drank from the well, regarding it as the purest and most blessed water on earth.

Throughout history, various efforts have been made to preserve and maintain the Zamzam well. The well has a diameter of 1.5 meters and a depth of 30 meters, and it is located 21 meters from the Kaaba. In response to the growing number of pilgrims, the water from Zamzam has been channeled to taps around the courtyard of the [[Masjid al-Haram]], allowing for easier access to this sacred resource.
