      You can take ZamZam to Pakistan without any problem.
      But can you take zamzam from Pakistan to London or other western countries?
      Can you carry it in hand or book it in luggage?

    Assalamu Alaikum. We are on tourist visa but performed Umrah here and will be departing from Medinah. We already bought one bottle Zam Zam from the store here and filled it into these transport bottles that they sell. We had planned to put it into our luggage, but after seeing your video, I think we won’t be allowed right? Because we 1) have tourist visas and 2) it’s not allowed to put Zam Zam into luggage, right?
    Can we put the water back into our Zam Zam Bottle, or will it be a problem that it’s already „opened“ and not sealed.

    • @LifeMoves
      @LifeMoves  Рік тому +3

      @ Walaikum Salam. Dana, yes, generally speaking, you are not supposed to put ZamZam in your luggage. They normally do not allow random bottles personally filled by travellers.
      If it is the type of sealed bottles I showed in the video, I know in some cases people have put those in the luggage and successfully took it home. However, there is a good chance it might be caught in the scan, they open the luggage and throw it out. So, you can take the chance, it is up to you.
      Ideally, the bottle should not only be sealed, it should be in a plastic packet, inside the white box. That’s what they sell at the airport for 8.5 riyals.
      The best option is to buy the 8.5 riyals’ sealed bottles from the airport and request them to take it as a separate item (not in the luggage). As you are flying from Madinah, I hope it will be allowed, even on tourist visa.
      Whatever the outcome is, I would appreciate if you comment here later and let us know. Your experience could benefit others.
      May Allah make it easy for you.

    Me and my family had the same problem getting the ZamZam water back with us from Madinah airport. Because we had the tourist visa we were not permitted to take any back with us and were told that we need the Umrah visa.
    Alhamdulillaah after a negotiation we were permitted to take the water with us.
    I’m worried that with this new law, we may only get zamzam water with a Umrah visa going forward.

      I travelled on tourist visa and returned to the U.K. from Madinah few weeks ago. I had no problems bringing 5L ZamZam per person. I didn’t even have to negotiate. They didn’t object at all.
      Yes, the current rule is No ZamZam on tourist visa but it is not applied consistently. I think they will be stricter on this moving forward.
      Right now, sometimes they object, sometimes they allow after a bit of negotiation and sometimes they don’t object at all. So, yeah, good luck! 😃

    We just got back to the UK from Umrah last week.
    We flew back from Jeddah Airport.
    There was eight of us travelling and we had eWaiver visa.
    We were flying back with Egypt Airlines terminal north Jeddah airport.
    And at the kiosk we were allowed to take eight 5 litre Zamzam according to the number of travellers in our party.
    So I can confirm that with evisa you can bring one 5 litre per traveller.

      Unfortunately, it doesn’t always work the same way for everyone. My sister’s family (a group of 4 on e-visa) was traveling from Jeddah new terminal on Emirates to New York. They purchased four 5L bottles but were not allowed to take them like we normally do. After a lot of pleading, the kiosk/checkin counter said “you can put one 5L inside your luggage. If it is thrown out later, I cannot help.”
      They followed the advice and Alhamdulillah managed to take one 5L bottle for the whole family.

      @ Aamir, you cannot take ZamZam in your handbag. When you go through security check, they will throw away the water.
      If you put extra ZamZam water in your main luggage, don’t fill your personal bottle. You can try to put an extra pre-packaged 5L bottle bought from the airport.
      However, there’s no guarantee. Sometimes they will throw it out, sometimes they won’t.
      So, the first 5L is guaranteed. Anything more than that depends on your luck (by Allah).

      The ZamZam water container is not carried in the luggage. So, it does not form part of the weight limit (whatever kg) of your “hand carry” / carry-on or main luggage. It goes as a separate item. This is the general rule. I have done multiple Umrahs (Alhamdulillah) and every time this rule was followed. However, I suggest you confirm with your airline.

      Walaikum Salam, if the tickets are booked as one booking (under one PNR) then it is possible that your luggage would be transferred even when you fly with two different airlines.
      However, if these are two separate bookings and have separate PNRs, then it is a self transfer. In that case, you have to collect your luggage after the first flight and check them in again.

      The setup of the ZamZam kiosks/counters at different airports and terminals can be slightly different. I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Buying ZamZam is a simple process.
      Then you head to the airlines’ check in counter. This is where you can ask if it is okay to put the water in your luggage. If you put it in without asking, there’s a risk that it may be removed and thrown out later. I have heard reports of this happening but have not verified this independently.

As it is a low-cost carrier, they are more likely to deny than other airlines. If you have paid for additional luggage and want to take ZamZam instead of the luggage, they may accept it. But it is not guaranteed.”
      That’s my friend the Umrah agent saying this. Personally, I don’t know for sure.

    • @LifeMoves
      @LifeMoves  Рік тому

      The answer to your question is not very simple. Can you buy ZamZam? Yes. Can you take it on your next flight? Maybe.
      Here’s why. Getting ZamZam is unrelated to Umrah or Hajj. If you have the necessary visa to exit the airport in Jeddah or Madinah, you can go and buy ZamZam.
      However, if you are flying from country A to country C with only a stopover in Jeddah or Madinah, you will probably check your luggage in from Country A and get it in country C. That would mean you are not checking in any luggage from Jeddah or Madinah. That’s where the problem lies. You cannot carry ZamZam on the plane. The ZamZam water is usually checked in along with your luggage (but not inside the luggage).
      If you book two flights separately then it would work. Flight 1 from country A to Madinah. Then flight 2 from Madinah to country C. If you have Saudi visa, you collect your luggage in Madinah, exit the airport, buy ZamZam, check it in for the second flight.

      @ Talha,
      1. The address in Saudi I provided was just the name of the hotel. You don’t even need an actual hotel reservation. You can provide the name of any hotel and book your room later.
      2. I don’t recall the specifics of the form but I didn’t have any major issues filling in my address.

    Zam zam water is free for Umrah visa and you get the same inside the airport. You just need to show your passport and visa.

      Thanks for the update. I now travel on Tourist visa. When I last traveled there on Umrah visa a few years ago, I had to pay about 8 riyals for ZamZam water at the official ZamZam counter at the airport.

    I am taking a domestic flight from medinah to jeddah airport then getting my long flight to london. Do I buy from medinah and will it be sent back properly?

    • @LifeMoves
      @LifeMoves  Рік тому

      If the domestic (MED to JED) and international (JED to LON) are part of the same booking, then yes, you can buy from Madinah. In other words, if you are issued your boarding passes for both domestic (MED to JED) and international (JED to LON) at the same time in Madinah, then you can check-in your ZamZam water from Madinah and get it in London.
      6 months ago, I traveled from Madinah to Riyadh (domestic) and Riyadh to London (international). These were part of the same booking. I purchased my ZamZam in Madinah, checked it in and received it in London.

      - Inside Hall A1
      - Outside gate B2.

      If you have converted to Islam, then you have every right just like any other Muslim. If your name on your passport is a non-Muslim name, I would suggest getting a signed letter from your local Masjid certifying that you have converted to Islam.
      If you have not converted, then I am not so sure. I know non-Muslims can enter Madinah. (I am not talking about should or should not. I am saying that’s the reality) Non-Muslims are not stopped from entering Madinah. Unfortunately, I don’t know about renting an apartment / room for a long period.
