The ruling on one who forgets to drink from Zamzam after 'Umrah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person performs 'Umrah and forgets to drink from the water of Zamzam or to take a bath with it, is anything required of him?

Answer:
Drinking from the water of Zamzam is not one of the acts of 'Umrah. It is an independent sunnah (recommended practice). One drinks from Zamzam with the intention of seeking blessing (tabarruk) from it and seeking healing from illness. It is an independent act of worship and has no connection to 'Umrah. His 'Umrah is valid even if he did not drink from Zamzam. Yes.
