Zamzam water is the most blessed water on Earth. Anyone drinking this water will be cured of any disease. It's a miracle, a clear sign of Islam.

Blessed to have been given a chance and opportunity to be able to visit this two historical mountains in Islam for multiple times.

The history of Safah and Marwah in Makkah dates back to ancient times and holds great significance in Islamic tradition. These two hills, located within the precincts of the Grand Mosque in Makkah, have a deep connection to the story of Hajar (Hagar) and her son Ismail (Ishmael), as mentioned in the Quran.

According to Islamic belief, Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) was commanded by Allah to leave his wife Hajar and their infant son Ismail in the barren valley of Makkah. As Ibrahim left them with limited provisions, Hajar ran between the hills of Safah and Marwah seven times in search of water for her thirsty child. It is said that on her seventh run, she heard a voice and discovered a spring known as Zamzam miraculously gushing forth from beneath Ismail's feet.

This incident became a symbol of trust in Allah's providence and unwavering faith for Muslims worldwide. The act of running between Safah and Marwah during Hajj (pilgrimage) or Umrah (lesser pilgrimage) has become an integral part of these rituals. Pilgrims retrace Hajar's footsteps by performing Sa'i, which involves running or walking briskly between the two hills seven times.

Over time, these hills were leveled out during various expansions of the Grand Mosque complex. However, their historical significance remains intact. Today, Safah and Marwah are marked by green pillars within the mosque area to indicate the starting point for Sa'i during Hajj and Umrah.

In recent years, Saudi Arabia has undertaken extensive renovations to accommodate the increasing number of pilgrims visiting Makkah. The area surrounding Safah and Marwah has been expanded with air-conditioned tunnels connecting both hills. This development ensures ease and comfort for pilgrims while performing Sa'i throughout the year.

The story of Safah and Marwah serves as a reminder of the strength and resilience of Hajar, who demonstrated unwavering faith and trust in Allah's plan. It also symbolizes the importance of perseverance and seeking divine guidance in times of hardship. The hills continue to be a place of spiritual significance, where millions of Muslims from around the world come to fulfill their religious obligations and connect with the rich history of Islam.

Safa and Marwa, also known as Saee, are two small hills located within the Masjid al-Haram in Makkah. Walking between these hills is a significant ritual of both Hajj and Umrah.

The journey between these hills reminds you of the story of Hagar's desperate search for water for her son Ishmael. This historical connection makes each step between Safa and Marwa heavy with meaning.

The path is now modernized, making it easier for pilgrims. It's covered and air-conditioned, which is a relief given the hot climate. Floors are marked to guide the pilgrims, ensuring an orderly flow.

But despite the modern facilities, the essence of Saee remains. As you walk, there's a feeling of unity, seeing so many people from different parts of the world, all there for the same purpose. The spiritual energy is tangible, making Saee an unforgettable part of the pilgrimage.
