Sayyiduna Abu Mas’ud Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that once the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) felt thirsty near the Ka’bah. He asked for something to drink, and nabidh (a drink made from soaked dates or raisins) was brought to him in a waterskin. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) smelled it, then said:“Bring me a bucket of Zamzam water!”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mixed that water with it, then drank it. A man asked: O Messenger of Allah! Is this forbidden? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied:“No, it is not.”
