عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ لَمَّا رَكَضَ زَمْزَمَ بِعَقِبِهِ جَعَلَتْ أُمُّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ تَجْمَعُ الْبَطْحَاءَ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ”رَحِمَ اللَّهُ هَاجَرَ أُمَّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، لَوْ تَرَكَتْهَا لَكَانَتْ مَاءً مَعِينًا.“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Jibreel (peace be upon him) pressed his heel to bring forth the water of Zamzam, the mother of Isma'il (peace be upon him) began to gather it by making a basin in the open valley. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: May Allah have mercy on the mother of Isma'il, Hajar; if she had left the water as it was, it would have become a flowing spring.
وَعَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ”مَاءُ زَمْزَمَ لِمَا شُرِبَ لَهُ.“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The water of Zamzam fulfills the purpose for which it is drunk.
عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ”إِنَّهَا مُبَارَكَةٌ إِنَّهَا طَعَامُ طَاعِمٍ.“ (يَعْنِي زَمْزَمَ)
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Zamzam water is blessed and it is food for the eater.
