Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is the recommendation to drink the water of Zamzam specific to the tawaf of ifadah, or is it general for every tawaf?
Answer:
It is general for those performing tawaf and for others. One drinks from the water of Zamzam for tabarruk (seeking blessing), whether he is a pilgrim performing Hajj, a pilgrim performing 'Umrah, or neither, and whether he is in Makkah, outside Makkah, or in any place. It is blessed water; you may drink it in any place and for any purpose.
