Attributes of Sayyiduna Isma’eel عَلَيۡهِ السَّلَام

Dear Islamic brothers! Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has blessed Sayyiduna Isma’eel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام with countless attributes, and he عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم has been mentioned at many places in the Holy Quran. He عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام is the one who built Ka’bah Mu’azzamah and the founder of Makkah tul Mukarramah. Sayyiduna Ibraheem عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام is ‘جَدُّ الۡعَرب’ (the grandfather of the Arab) and he عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام is ‘اَبُو الۡعَرب’ (the father of the Arab). Aab-e-Zamzam is his Mu’jizah-e-Irhaas [a miracle that he عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم performed before the declaration of Nubuwwat]. It will continue until the Judgement Day. Only two miracles will remain until the Judgement Day: (1) Spring of the Zamzam Water which has sprung out by virtue of the heel of Sayyiduna Isma’eel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام (2) The religion of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم i.e., the Holy Quran, blessed Hadees and their laws and acts of worship.

Remembrance of Sayyiduna Isma’eel عَلَيۡهِ السَّلَام

Dear Islamic brothers! The miracle of Zamzam Water that will continue to exist until the Judgement Day, is superior and preferable to all types of water in the world by virtue of its relation to Sayyiduna Isma’eel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم.

Many years have passed, but still this water is benefiting the creation of Allah Almighty and also distributing the blessings of the cure of apparent and spiritual diseases. Ala Hadrat عَـلَيْهِ رَحْمَةُ الـرَّحْمٰن has stated: Another miracle of the Zamzam Water is that its taste keeps changing all the time—sometimes it is salty to some extent and sometimes it is extremely sweet. If it is drunk at 2 am at night, it gives the taste of pure fresh milk that has just been taken from a cow. (He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has further said:) Whoever has plenty of blessed Zamzam needs neither any food nor medicine. (Malfuzaat-e-A’la Hadrat, pp. 435) It is stated in a blessed Hadees: Zamzam is food in place of food and medicine in place of medicine. (Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah, vol. 4, pp. 358, Hadees 2)
