Account of the wells of the clans of Quraysh in Makkah
ذِكْرُ بِئَارِ قَبَائِلِ قُرَيْشٍ بِمَكَّةَ [ الطَّوِيُّ وَمَنْ حَفَرَهَا ] قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَكَانَتْ قُرَيْشٌ قَبْلَ حَفْرِ زَمْزَمَ قَدْ احْتَفَرَتْ بِئَارًا بِمَكَّةَ، فِيمَا حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَكَّائِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: حَفَرَ عَبْدُ شَمْسِ بْنُ عَبْدِ مَنَافٍ الطَّوِيَّ، وهي الْبِئْرُ الَّتِي بِأَعْلَى مَكَّةَ عِنْدَ الْبَيْضَاءِ، دَارُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يُوسُفَ ( الثَّقَفِيُّ ).
