Islamic Landmarks
The Well of Uthman ibn Affan (also known as Bir Rumah) holds a significant place in Islamic history due to its connection with Uthman ibn Affan (RA), the third Caliph of Islam and one of the Prophet (SAW)’s closest companions.
During the time of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW), there was a water shortage in Madinah, and the only well providing fresh water was owned by a Jewish man who sold it at high prices. Uthman ibn Affan, known for his generosity, purchased the well for the benefit of the Muslim community.
After acquiring the well, Uthman (RA) made its water free for everyone, turning it into a public resource. This act of charity earned him great respect among the Muslims, and it became one of his most well-known contributions to the early Islamic community.
