Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it not asked about drinking the water of Zamzam? And is leaving off drinking the water of Zamzam considered hypocrisy?

Answer:
Drinking the water of Zamzam is recommended because it is blessed water. The one who does not drink it is not thereby a hypocrite, except if he hates Zamzam, hates it and its water, and leaves it off out of hatred for it and disbelief in its virtue. This is considered hypocrisy. But if he leaves it off while he believes in its virtue, its blessing, and the permissibility of drinking from it, leaving it off while he believes in its virtue, its blessing, and the permissibility of drinking from it, then he is not considered a hypocrite. Yes.
