بئر رومة
Bir Rumah, also known as the Well of Uthman, is a historic well located in the northwestern part of Madinah surrounded by a public garden and date palm groves. The well site has been developed into a small park-like area that provides a peaceful green space for visitors. A large date palm garden adjacent to the well is said to still produce fruit from trees descended from the original plantings.
بئر العِهْن
Bir al-Ehn lies in the Aliyah district of Madinah, among what were the dwellings of Banu Umayyah of the Ansar. Sources differ on whether it is a well in its own right: Saudi and Arabic reference works treat "al-Ehn" and "al-Yasira" as two names for a single well, while some listings of the prophetic wells count them as separate sites. HalalAtlas keeps both entries until that is settled, so this record and the Alyasira Well record may describe the same place.
