Meaning of Meezab-e-Rehmat
The literal meaning of Meezab-e-Rahmat is the “Water outlet of mercy”. Some people call it the gutter of the Holy Kaaba🕋 which I believe is not an appropriate name to be associated with the sacred building.
Acceptance of Dua
It is said that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ supplicated under that Meezab-e-Rehmat. It is one of the 8 places in Holy Kaaba where dua is accepted.
Water from Meezab
People think that the water coming from the roof of the Holy Kaaba🕋 is magical and full of Shifa. However, there is no such confirmation that states the religious or scientific importance of this water.
What is written on Meezab?
If you look closely, the words written on the Meezab Rehmat are;
- بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيم
- يا الله
- جدد. هذا الميزاب. خادم الحرمين الشريفين الملك فهد بن عبد العزيز.
- This Meezab was renovated by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Fahd bin Abdulaziz.
Sharp Nails on the Spout
The sharp nails on the edges of Meezab are designed so that pigeons and other birds don’t sit there. If they sit here, their poop would contaminate the Hijr Ismail/Hateem which is part of the Holy Kaaba🕋 itself.

The length of the water outlet of mercy is 253 cm and the width is 26 cm. The portion which is inside the wall of the Kaaba roof is 58 centimeters. It is fixed at a height of around 50 feet above the ground.
