The profession of al-Zamzamah (Zamzam breeder) is also one of the prevalent professions in Makkah and its suburbs. During the Hajj season, Meccans have been offering Zamzam water to pilgrims. Those who do this work are called al-Zamazma. Al-Zamzama is plural form and its singular form is Zamzammi.
Years ago, Al-Zamzamah used to fill the wells of Zamzam water and fill it with Zamzam water and serve it to the pilgrims.
