Ibn 'Abbas said (may Allah be well pleased with him and his father):
“The Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) drank from [the water of] Zamzam while standing.”
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ الأَحْوَلُ، وَمُغِيرَةُ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ‏:‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، شَرِبَ مِنْ زَمْزَمَ، وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ‏.‏

Explanation
comments
Sayyidina Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam has prohibited the drinking of water whilst standing. This shall be discussed in the commentary of the next hadith. For this reason some ulama have prohibited the drinking of Zam-zam also whilst standing. They say that he drank it whilst standing because of the huge crowds and the rush, or as a concession. The well-known view of the ulama is that Zam-zam is not included in this prohibition. It is better to stand and drink it.
