Chapter No. 41, Distribution of Water
Hadith No: 562
Narrated/Authority of Ibn Abbas
The Prophet (SAW) said, "May Allah be merciful to the mother of Ismail (Ishmael)! If she had left the water of Zamzam (fountain) as it was, (without constructing a basin for keeping the water), (or said, "If she had not taken handfuls of its water"), it would have been a flowing stream. Jurhum (an Arab tribe) came and asked her, 'May we settle at your dwelling?' She said, 'Yes, but you have no right to possess the water.' They agreed."
