Is it permissible to mix Zamzam water with other water, and does it retain its blessing and sanctity after mixing?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If Zamzam water is mixed with other water, the mixture retains the blessing of Zamzam water to the extent of the Zamzam water contained within it, because the drinker consumes a portion of it. Al-Kasani mentioned that if someone swears not to drink Zamzam water and then drinks a mixture where Zamzam water is submerged by other water, their oath is broken. Sheikh Ibn Jibreen stated that mixing Zamzam water with other water does not nullify its ruling or its virtue, even though it is preferable to drink it pure.
