Zujajat al-Masabih 545Volume 1

English

Ibn Sirin (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: "A black man fell into the Zamzam well, meaning he died. Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered his body to be removed, and he ordered that the water be drawn out. They were then overwhelmed by a spring that came from the corner. Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered it to be drawn out with sheets and blankets until they drew it out, and when they did, it erupted." [Narrated by al-Daraqutni (with a broken chain)] Imam al-Taymiyyah said: "Its chain is authentic," and al-Bayhaqi, Ibn Abi Shaiba, and Abdul Razzaq reported something similar, and Ibn Abi Shaiba's chain is also authentic.
