[Machine] May Allah's peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah. May Allah have mercy on the mother of Isma'il, if she hadn't hurried, Zamzam would have become a flowing spring.  

أحمد:٣٣٩٠ – حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ قَالَ أُنْبِئْتُ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَجَاءَ الْمَلَكُ بِهَا حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى مَوْضِعِ زَمْزَمَ فَضَرَبَ بِعَقِبِهِ فَفَارَتْ عَيْنًا فَعَجِلَتِ الْإِنْسَانَةُ فَجَعَلَتْ تَقْدَحُ فِي شَنَّتِهَا فَقَالَ

رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَحِمَ اللهُ أُمَّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ لَوْلَا أَنَّهَا عَجِلَتْ لَكَانَتْزَمْزَمُ عَيْنًا مَعِينًا

"يَرْحَمُ اللَّهُ أُمَّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ لَوْ تَرَكَتْ زَمزَمَ، أَوْ قَالَ، لَوْ لَمْ تَغْرِفْ مِن الْمَاءِ لَكَانَتْ عَيْنًا مَعِينًا".
