The Ruling on the Hadiths Regarding the Virtue of Zamzam Water and Surat Yasin

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question in the letter of our brother Saleh 'Abd al-Yamani asks: Is there an authentic hadith regarding the benefit of Zamzam water and Surat Yasin? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.
Answer: As for Zamzam water, the report regarding it is authentic from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), who said:
It is blessed, and it is food that nourishesإنها مباركة، وإنها طعام طعم
Muslim narrated it in his Sahih. Abu Dawud added:
and a cure for sicknessوشفاء سقم
It is blessed, and its water is blessed, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Food that nourishes, and healing for sicknessطعام طعم، وشفاء سقم
Musannaf Abd al-Razzaq 12:1015
And he said:
It is blessedإنها مباركة
It is a means of healing from the ailments that a servant suffers from. It was also narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said:
The water of Zamzam is for whatever it is drunk for.ماء زمزم لما شرب له
Sunan Ibn Majah 3062Hasan (Darussalam)
However, this hadith was deemed weak by a group of scholars, and its chains contain weakness. But the hadith:
Food that satisfies hunger and a cure for illnessطعام طعم وشفاء سقم
Musannaf Abd al-Razzaq 12:1015
may serve as a witness to it. In any case, this blessed well contains great good by the explicit statement of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him):
It is food that nourishes, and healing for sicknessفهي طعام طعم، وشفاء سقم
Musannaf Abd al-Razzaq 12:1015
It is blessed.
As for Surat Yasin, all the hadiths narrated regarding it are weak. And success is from Allah. Yes.
