is Zamzam water, Islamic history states that Zamzam Well was revealed to Hajar,
the wife of Abraham (Ibrahim) and mother of Ismael around
the year 2000 BC. According to Islamic tradition, she was desperately seeking
water for her infant son, but could find none, as Mecca is located in a hot dry valley with few
other sources of water. Muslim traditions say that Hajar
ran seven times back and forth in the scorching heat between the two hills of Safa and marwah, looking for
water. Getting thirstier by the second, her son, Ishmael, anxiously scrapped
the land with his feet, where suddenly water sprang out. There are other
versions of the story involving Allah sending his angel, Gabriel, who touched
the ground where water rose.
