Pilgrims Cannot Take ZamZam Water To Homes, Saudi Arabia Authorities

MAKKAH – Amid the restrictions that are currently still imposed on Hajj and Umrah pilgrims, Saudi authorities have now also banned the carrying of bottles of ZamZam holy water in checked-in baggage ahead of Dhul Hijjah, the holy month for the Islamic pilgrimage of Hajj.

Pilgrims Cannot Take ZamZam Water To Homes

On Tuesday, the General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) issued a notification of new guidelines officially banning Hajj and Umrah pilgrims from bringing bottles of ZamZam water inside checked-in baggage back to their countries.

Checked-in baggage is the luggage delivered to an airline for transportation. It is inaccessible to the passengers during the flight. Pilgrims usually carry ZamZam bottles inside checked-in baggage and carry-on baggage.

The advisor dated May 17 obliges all airlines operating in Saudi Arabia to strictly ensure that no passengers traveling through Jeddah or any other airport in the Kingdom carry bottles filled with ZamZam water.

If any violation of the circular issued by GACA is found, it will be considered an explicit violation of the Government’s orders. Strict legal action will be taken against violators who are caught violating the circulars.

The advisory applies to all airlines operating at Saudi Arabian airports including private flights as well as to all airlines departing from Saudi Arabian airports.

The new regulations will certainly surprise the pilgrims who will perform Hajj this year as they will get a smaller share of ZamZam water that can be taken home after performing the annual rituals.

In 2014, disappointment and protests spread among the congregation due to the regulations issued at the time limiting the number of bottles and cans of ZamZam water that pilgrims could carry from the initial 10 liters per person to only 5 liters per person.

Aab-e-ZamZam is water from the ZamZam well located in the Masjid Al Haram, Makkah, which is considered a miraculously generated source of water that has great religious significance among Muslims. Traditionally, pilgrims often bring it back to their respective countries in large numbers after performing Hajj or Umrah.
