It's good to witness such historic Islamic sites. They hold a part of our history that we still can see.. although many years have passed but yet we can witness and atleast have a few sips of the same water as the Holy prophet salalahu alayhi wasalam and his companions.

The al-Ghars Well (بئر غرس) is a historic water well in the city of Medina, Saudi Arabia. Traditionally it is believed that the prophet Muhammad drank from this well once, and also made a request that be bathed with its water after his demise.
