Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man is suffering from a nasal allergy. He says: A man is ill, and his illness is a nasal allergy. He treats it with a spray on a continuous basis. One time he went on 'Umrah, and his spray ran out, so he put Zamzam water in the bottle. He found it to be a very beneficial treatment, so he continued using it and recommended it to his companions who are ill like him. What is the ruling on such an action?

Answer:
Well, with Zamzam, which is blessed, and since it is drunk for its benefit, it serves as a cure, it serves as nourishment, and it serves as a means of seeking blessing (tabarruk), because it is blessed water. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The water of Zamzam is for whatever it is drunk for.ماء زمزم لما شرب له
Sunan Ibn Majah 3062Hasan (Darussalam)
If I drink it for treatment, it is a treatment. If I drink it for worship and reward, it is worship. If I drink it for thirst, it is for thirst, according to my intention.
