hajrah

 What is Zamzam water? What's cool, refreshing and will quench your thirst in the hot, Arabian desert? If you answered (fill in the name of the latest fad soft drink), you're wrong. Zamzam is the name of the well that provides the water billions of people.

Muslims who perform the Hajj or Umra must run in the middle portion of the distance between Safa and Marwa seven times. This is a commemoration of one mother's sacrifice for her son.
