Why Muslims Must NOT Visit Al-Ula (Madain Saleh) + Source Included

Hello people! + Assalamualaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatahu to my fellow brothers & sisters in Islam!

I know how nowadays Saudi Arabia is in a new era where its opening up its doors to the world, especially as somebody who grew up there, I experienced this land before this era, and experiencing its era now. There is a big emphasis on tourism nowadays, and Al-Ula (Madain Saleh) is one of their biggest promotions. For non-muslims, I wouldn't mind if they visited there (obviously, who wouldn't like to explore Saudi Arabia in its whole self), however for Muslims, I really need to warn you, my dear muslim sisters & brothers, no matter how curious you are. 

Please DO NOT, and I repeat, DO NOT visit Madain Saleh (Al-Ula), because it is CURSED, if you make contact with the land, the unfortunate fate that hit Thamud WILL affect you, and if you'd like some proof from a holy source, here's a hadith (Link + Image):

And here's the image:

To the Non-Muslims reading this: You don't have to worry about this, so calm down.

To the Muslims reading this: You ALSO calm down, but keep yourself as far as possible from the domain of Madain Saleh for the sake of your safety, since it is a stated requirement which we must follow (also bro leave the risky crazy exploration to white people, stay safe in your home vro ❤️[joke btw just to specify])

I would also like to thank people who read this till the end, as you took time out of your day to pay attention to my mediocre blog, thanks 💚💚💚.

Anyways, have a great day/night, and Salam to my muslim sisters & brothers! 

Love you all!
