@masukuma, yes zamzam is pure water because the well is ever clean, no moss, no insects, no fungi etc or other contaminators. You are learned, you know water will have those impurities if it is contaminated. But if it not contaminated, how will it have impurities... Makkah is one of the cleanest place in the world... And you did not mention that the well produces water at the rate of 18 litres per second!



And it is only 13 meters below the ground. Compared to Nairobi, water is generally available from 250-350 metres



It is the best water in the world. It is a miracle, isn't?

For those who have not heard about this, let me bring you up to speed...

Do you remember the story of Hajar or Haggar the 2nd wife of Ibrahim (May God be pleased with them)? Centuries ago, after Hajar gave birth to Ismail, Sarah began to feel jealous. Sarah asked Ibrahem to send Hajar and the son away from her. God revealed to Ibrahim that he should take Hajar and the infant Ismail and take them to Makkah. So he took them and left Hajar and her child Ismail in an isolated place in which there was no water. He left them and went back to Palestine. Conversation:

Hajar said to him, "For whom are you leaving us in this forsaken valley?" But Ibrahim did not talk to her, he just left her, and she said, "Has God commanded you to do this?" He said, "Yes." She said, "Then God will not cause us to be lost."

Hajar searched desperately for water in the hills of Safa and Marwa to give it to her young son, Ismail (pbuh). As she ran from one place to another in search of water, her child cried, rubbing his feet against the sand. A pool of water surfaced, and by the grace of God, which came to be called Zamzam water.

Ever since it came into existence at that time of Ibrahim (pbuh), many, many centuries ago, this is a well that has never dried up. Actually, it has always remained filled up and met the demand of the people. It has maintained its chemical composition and taste since the time it was analyzed. Pilgrims have always carried it and as they go back home, all over the world after visit to the Kabah every year during Hajj. No one has ever but have never make a complaint about the water. They have enjoyed its refreshing effect.

ZamZam water has never been treated chemically or chlorinated to purify it. ZamZam water has no biological growth and no vegetation that is mostly observed in other wells

Interesting. But I work with high quality water- not for human consumption (deionised water not good for you) and needs to go through very many processes and still grows algae after two days. I have to use it in one day otherwise i discard.

This is marketing.

The above mentioned water goes through below processes;
It is ultra-filtered to remove particles and bacteria;
It is distilled to remove gases;
It is deionised to remove ions;
It is passed through UV to remove organics;
It goes through reverse osmosis to cleanse all above!

Kunywa tu maji wacha complications

The question paused is interesting: why don't the insects, and other creatures seem to want it?

This is the original question/comment.
