Salaah behind Maqaam (station of) Ibraaheem and Drinking of Zamzam water

After completing the seventh round, cover your right shoulder and head towards Maqaam Ibraaheem while reciting: Wattakhithoo min maqaami Ibraaheema musallaa (And take, [O believers], from the standing place of Ibraaheem a place of prayer.) (2:125). Then offer two raka’ah (units) of prayer behind Maqaam Ibraaheem, placing Maqaam Ibraaheem between yourself and the k’abah (even from a far distance) if possible. If you are unable to do this due to the rush or because it would cause inconvenience, then offer this salaah anywhere in the masjid. It is preferred to recite soorat al-Kaafiroon in the first raka’ah (after al-Faatihah) and al-Ikhlaas in the second (after al-Faatihah). Do not take long for this salaah thereby inconveniencing others.

Next, it is preferred to go towards the well of Zamzam and drink from it and pour some of it over the head. The Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) informed us that Zamzam is for what you drink it for; it is for nutrition as well as healing.Then go back to the black stone and kiss, touch or indicate towards it as during tawaaf if possible.

Pride is a massive sin. All the knowledge and understanding you have in your life is not because of your own doing - it is because Allah has blessed you to know it, via the circumstances he has created in your life. So be thankful to Allah and don't judge others.

No one is judging, but the end of the day, like I said, this is BASIC STUFF. You call yourself Muslim and don't know about Zam Zam? Really?!

yhasssss!

and i dont think that's basic stuff, i mean until a year back i hardly knew about it even though i was learning about islam. yup my parents are "unislamic" but all the books and everything else weren't(that i read to know more about islam).
please correct me if i'm wrong since you people here are better than me in every aspect of life but i think the basics is supposed to be pillars of islam and articles of faith and everything else quran or hadith commands us to do, to lead a pious life. i think zam zam here counts in attaining knowledge which is farz but there ain't one hadith or ayat that says its basic stuff..but again yeah that doesn't mean you ignore it..

could you tell me if i dont know this kind of basic stuff does that mean i'm UNISLAMIC? i wonder how much more do i not know:phew

anyways i learned lots here! thanks.

So what if it is basic stuff? Do you expect a lot of basic knowledge to be directed to everyone? Allah does what he wants.

Why do you say that?
If you don't respect yourself, why should others do it?
You probably have some things where you shine at, compared to most.

salam my brother in deen,
thanks for your concern.


i usually say something like that before talking about stuff i dont have full complete knowledge of. and i said that because you guys here sound alot more knowledgeable and ISLAMIC than me and a better muslim is a better person, isn't it?

i really dont understand how i can respect myself if other dont respect me. and for the record, i respect everyone. hmmmmm looks like my life is alot different than you people here. in short i'll tell you nobody respects me.

i dont an answer - that was just an explanation . lets not talk about respect here because it sounds something of very high standard and hard and unattainable for someone like me.
lets just go back to zam zam
