Is supplication prescribed when drinking the water of Zamzam?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Now, a second question, Shaykh, may Allah reward you. Some students of knowledge say that supplication when drinking the water of Zamzam is not reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Is this correct?
The Shaykh:
By Allah, I do not know. What is known from Ibn Abbas was that he would supplicate to Allah, facing the Ka'bah, saying: "O You who turn the hearts, turn our hearts to what You have decreed." I do not recall a report traced to the Prophet.
The questioner:
Do you not recall anything now, Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
It is blessed, it is food and a cure for the sick.
The questioner:
But you do not recall, Shaykh, anything regarding the supplication, Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
What Allah wills, something traced to the Prophet, I mean.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah answer you, Shaykh. He found these three questions on the evening of Sunday, the third of the first month of Dhu al-Hijjah, in the year 1417 AH.
