AT-TAFLAH WELL

at-Taflah

بئر اشتهرت بعذوبة مائها، تقع وسط "عسفان" بين مكة والمدينة، وتبعد 25 كيلو مترا عن جدة، سميت بذلك لأن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم مر بها في رحلة عمرته وبصق "تفل" فيها، ومن ذلك الحين لم يجف ماؤها.

A well renowned for the sweetness of its water, located in the centre of "Asfan" between Makkah and Madinah, about 25 km from Jeddah. According to local tradition, it was so named because the Prophet (peace be upon him) passed by it during his Umrah journey and "spat" into it; and since then, its water has never dried up.
