Zamzam water is for what it is drunk for, as stated in the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Is a specific quantity required to achieve this?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner says:
The water of Zamzam is for whatever it is drunk for. ماء زمزم لما شرب له
Sunan Ibn Majah 3062Hasan (Darussalam)
as stated in the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), is a specific quantity required to achieve this?

The Shaykh : The apparent meaning of the hadith is that no specific quantity is required for this. However, the scholars said: It is recommended for a person to drink from the water of Zamzam and fill himself with it, meaning to fill his stomach with it. There is no doubt that the water of Zamzam is blessed water, and that:
Food that satisfies hunger and a cure for illness طعام طعم وشفاء سقم
Musannaf Abd al-Razzaq 12:1015
by the permission of Allah (Mighty and Majestic).
