What is the ruling on using Zamzam water for istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself)?
The scholars have unanimously agreed that using Zamzam water for istinja' (washing after relieving oneself) is sufficient.

As for performing wudu' (ablution) and ghusl (ritual bath) with it, this is permissible without any dislike.
