I am far behind and I really need help with this unit assignment so I can move on to work on the rest. I have 2 weeks of school left and many other classes I have to do so I don’t want to hear your half ass excuses about what it was like to live without computers and that I should do my own homework, I’m stressed, I’m on wits end, and I’m liable to go postal so either answer or keep your fucking mouths SHUT!

A Perpetual Water

One of the greatest attributes of Zamzam is that it will never dry up. This is a gift from Allaah to Makkah and to its pilgrims. Ibn ‘Abbaas narrated that the Prophet said: "… May Allaah bestow his mercy upon her (Hagar, the mother of Ismaa’eel), had she let go (of the water of Zamzam) it would have become a spring (rather than a well) whose water shall never dry." [Ahmad]

Every year, millions upon millions of pilgrims drink Zamzam water, which has been around for thousands of years. It is fed daily to the Prophet’s mosque in Madeenah in large quantities, and is packaged and shipped to millions of Muslims worldwide, without the slightest blemish in its flow. It is the epitome of munificence; the more we drink, the more it gives.

If so, why does the Saudi Geological Survey pump water and store it?
From wikipedia with sources: the underground aquifer that supplies water to the well only has an area of 60 square kilometres, and during extended periods of dry weather, the water levels drop. In order to ensure that there is enough Zamzam water for the pilgrims, the water is pumped out from the well and stored in storage tanks at the basement level during off-peak seasons. During the pilgrimage season, the stored water together with additional water drawn from the subterranean water table around the Zamzam well are pumped into water dispensers for the benefit of the pilgrims.

Does that mean it can deplete??

Hello, I’m currently at Fort Jackson, SC at Reception waiting to be shipped off to AIT. The school is about 9 weeks long. Now the situation is that I am also a reservist who starts school on August 25. Now I doubt that they will fast track my training, but is there anyway that I can return before the first day of college?

I’ve already had people try to contact my professors and tell them of my situation, and hopefully I won’t be dropped from my classes or school entirely.

But I’m still hoping if it was possible to get a mandatory return date from some source and show it to my commander or 1sg when I get to my AIT unit?

Please, serious answers only.
I apologize, let me rephrase that. I don’t want to be sent home to retrain again. Because that’s pretty stupid.

But from word of mouth from some of the sgt whisper talk, I hear they are fast-tracking some of the AIT schools, simply because of the summer surge, and I was wondering if I had papers, or used the open-door policy to speak with the commander, would it be possible that my AIT school would be fast-tracked as well? Some of the other 44c in my company (reception, mind you) have the same situation.

Is it true that the zamzam well will never dry up?

Why would they pump it if it was never gonna run dry? There’d be no need?

And because you’d go crazy if God were true. I’ll be laughing on that day. I’ve read the evil emails you sent me. Stay away from me and my questions.

When I joined the DEP I was located East of the Mississippi. My mom (who is in the military) got orders to the West coast… seeing as I live with her I have to go with her.

My original recruiter says that I would have to fly all the way back to Florida a month prior to my ship date for MEPS and go to MCRD Parris Island.

The recruiter in the area that I am now located tells me that I can go to MCRD San Diego so I wouldn’t have to have to drop college and find a way to support myself for a month in Florida. He called it a courtesy ship or something.

Can anyone help me understand because right now my only two sources are contradicting each other. Thanks!
My entire issue was that both recruiters were telling me different things about my situation.
