Description

The Bir Al Shifa Well, also known as (Beer Al-Shifa) is a famous well in Islamic history. It is located apx 1 hour drive from the Blessed City of Madinah. It reported that this well was originally dug to assist muslim pilgrims who would travel for Hajj and Ummrah and required water on their journey.

However, its water was bitter and salty and often made people ill. It is reported that The Blessed Prophet Muhammed, Peace and Blessings of God Be Upon Him, was informed about the bitterness and unhealthy nature of the water. He placed his Blessed saliva in the water after which the nature of the water became sweet and healthy by the permission of God. Visitors today can still visit this well is located off the main highway and taste the sweetness of this water for themselves. You may also be interested in visiting the Ghars Well and Ethiq Well both of which are located in Madinah.

This clinic doesn't even deserve a star. Pathetic customer service,the staff is not helpful at all. Dr. Seema is the worst doctor I have ever met in my life. She doesn't know how to behave with a sick patient. Very rude and disgusting.

Visited today with my family to find the well closed. It's been closed for the last 2 months and will be closed for another 2 months we have been told due to improvement work. Very disappointing! The listing online should be updated to show it's temporarily closed, to save people a wasted journey.
