Drinking Zam Zam water while standing
Question
One should drink water by sitting, but for drinking Zamzam water we should stand and drink? (As people says) if yes, then, what is the ruling on a person who lives in Makkah, where he has only Zamzam water, he should drink it in standing position still he is there?
Answer
It is optional. If he wants to sit he can sit and if he wants he can stand.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
