BIR UTHMAN


Bir Uthman” is a name of Well in Medina, Bir is an Arabic word which means “Well”. The Bir Uthman is also known as “Well of Uthman”. It is well of the time of Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) at the time of water shortage Muslim used to fetch water from these Well, These well is still present in the land of Medina it is in “Munawwarah” it is a city in Medina. Now People are still fetching water form it by installing the electric motors, used to irrigate land and use in hous hold.

Well, this will also has a history behind it. Ones due to lack of rainfall in Medina all the wells got empty except the one well, which was owned by a Jew, that Jew used to give water to Muslims at very high rates and give free water to Jews, when this news was heard by Holy Prophet  (P.B.U.H) he said 

As it is narrated by the Abu Hurayra in Bukhari;

“The one who will buy that well for Muslims, I promised he will get a mansion in heavens”

Then Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) went to Hazrat Usman, who is also the second caliph of Islam and said to Hazrat Usman to buy that well for Muslims. He without any questioning went to that Jew and ask him for his price of well, he sell only half well to Hazrat Usman, then Hazrat Usman started giving free water to Muslims, so no Muslim was buying water from that Jew so he asked Hazrat Usman to buy the second half off well, he happily bought that well for Muslim to fetch water as much as they need for free he bought that well from that Jew for 38,000 DIRHAM for each half. Which was a huge sum of money at that time. These is the reason why that well is known as “Bir Uthman” or “Well of Uthman”.

Is it the center of attraction for all the Muslims throughout the world as it is a wish of every Muslim to fetch water form that Well and fulfill their thirst as it was done by the Muslims at the time of Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H).
