Prophet Mohammad (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him), when he passed by al-Hijr - which was the dwelling place of Thamood - said: “Do not enter the dwelling places of those who wronged themselves, lest there befall you what befell them, unless you are weeping.” Then he covered his head and hastened until he left the valley. Narrated by al-Bukhaari in his Saheeh from Ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him).
@@joeplayz not really, they found buried bones and inscriptions (names of people buried there) for those tombs. And does not make sense they date from 100 BC to 100AD, and Thamud were before the Pharoh and Prophet Musa a.s. I think after Nation of AD, So makes no sense. Unless Thamud were from 300 BC to 100AD, I don't see how these are the dwellings of them.
@@joeplayz so it's possible that Nabateans took the place after the Thamuds were gone and changed it into tombs. Or Nabateans considered Thamud as their predecessors.
I really appreciate the DIY travel tip portion of the clip. Other travel vlogs just show you how great their trip was without bothering to share how to do it.
Its the place where Prophet Saleh and his people were settled in Saudi Arabia. These people were destroyed when they went against the teachings of Prophet Saleh A.S ( a Prophet from true God ALLAH)
I was lucky enough to visit that place 3 yrs ago when it was still desolate, almost no people around and no structures built. Back then, you could tour it by yourself, no tour guide, no performances, just its raw and natural beauty.
Al Ula is the largest museum the world, it has a lot of heritage site. Closing the site is for summer (its boiling), maintenance & re-arrangement. this is every year. Welcome again to our great country
@@evaklugmann4422 Al Ula is the largest natural museum the world, there are so many sites where it is currently closed (not ready tourists). its spread within around 70 KM from center of Al Ula.
in the islamic countries the hospitality is the best indonesia bangladesh, tunisia, morococo and saudi arabia, Turkey.. ect.. wich i live in europe all my life i never saw such much hospitality... much people don't give you a gived and are mostyl distance.. i did some rescearch and i did learn that Islam teach you to respect everyone, doesnt matter what you belief or are.. there are so must peacefull things i didin't know before. so amazing
Hi Jason, thank you for your videos. Thoroughly enjoyed them. I’ve been only to Mecca n Medina for Umrah n Hajj in 1981 n 2007/08. In those days I never heard about Madain Salleh. Keep posting those Saudi Arabian videos!
@@md.hossain4974 ... Do reveal what you know. Those were carved with hidden technology and the Rock, boulder, was probably larger and could have been a sort of Mosque before Islam was founded, and a place for weary travellers to relax on their journey and out of the heat from the midday and afternoon Sun.
We made a road trip across Saudi Arabia way back before this place was declared as a Heritage site, in a 1995 corolla. We visited this place and parked our car right in front of those entrance doors. The security there did not allow us initially but after we told them we travelled for like 2500 kms to see this, they allowed us. We even had the option to enter the houses but chose not to because, in Islam we aren't supposed to stay at longer times at places were wrath of Allah has befallen. It was such a great experience, we didn't have any cameras with us (couldn't afford it) but the memories are still fresh.
Also, this place has been cleaned up a lot, when we visited this place, there was no path, we had to maneuver the car carefully so as to avoid getting stuck in sand.
Northwest of the kingdom, go there ... the Red Sea islands between the city of Umluj and Wajh..you will find dolphins and clean beaches. It is better to visit the city of Al Bad (Madyan) (The migration of the Prophet Moses ) Its name is Arabic ( مغائر شعيب ) . There are the ruins of the Prophet Yethro, Jabal Musa and Bir Musa, and beautiful beaches near it, such as Muqna Beach, Sharma Beaches, Khurama Beaches, Tiran Islands and Sanafir And the city of Tayma to see other Archaeology The city of Al-Ula has four ancient civilizations such as the Thamud civilization, the Nabatean civilization, the Lihyan civilization, and the Dedan civilization are among the most important cultural heritage sites and it is the largest open museum in the world

I visited this site in 2004, there was nobody there at all, apart from an old guy guarding the gate. Very atmospheric place, some Saudis consider that there is a curse on Madain Saleh and will not visit. Well worth the trip, I flew from Jeddah to Medina then hired a driver to Al-Ula and stayed in Bedouin style tents. Well worth a visit and a lot less commercialised than Petra in Jordan, another Nabatean settlement
It's amazing how much Saudi has changed the last few years. I left the country almost 7 years ago and visiting Madain Saleh was unimaginable. We've been taught in schools that we shouldn't visit for religious reasons as the people who used to live there were punished by GOD for their sins and not believing their prophet Saleh. But now people are going there for tourism and festivals where they have actors men and women reenacting the said punished people by God. Just incredible.
Been waiting for someone to make a video on this! Thanks for this. I planned to visit last year but couldn't go with our Umrah Visas but now they have tourist visas. Can't wait to visit next time.
Jason, thanks a billion for this "unique" coverage about my country, and welcome aboard. As it says in Arabic to express our hospitality to our visitors : An eye as a bed and the other one as a blanket (for our guests) It says in the Holy Quran: "And you carve out of the mountains, homes, with skill" 26 : 149 Chapter name: Surah Ash-Shu'ara (26) Verse number: (149)
@ Zain Saalar ... Saudi Arabia has been chosen to build NEOM, The Artificial Intelligent City with Robots,why do you think it was chosen by the Nobility.
Mashaallah! It’s so amazing view I thought it’s only Petra in Jordan has spectacularly view for nabitians who used to live in the cave I really appreciated for our upload the vedeo ... I was very amazed for the video
In the 1980s I worked near Jeddah for over 4 years. The weekend comprised late Thursday afternoon and a Friday only. Went on some brilliant camping trips with our local Expat Bushwacker’s Group . We travelled far and wide in Saudi including the mountains (seeing eagles soaring in the valleys below was an amazing experience). Frequently travelled up the Taif Escarpment which in those days was quite daunting given the standard of driving by locals and state of the road! One of our best trips was to the Hijaz Railway with steam train still on its side and broken rails from when Lawrence blew it up and Madain Salah (compares favourably with Petra). In those there was no tourism or infrastructure . Slept outside under the stars and will never forget witnessing the sun rising over the Madain Saleh site. Tombs very beautiful and impressive . Loved it !!
Thank you for sharing this. Felt sense of peace watching it after learning about the story from the Quran, especially the bits where u just roll on the landscape/architecture with soothing BGM. 😍

JASON Al-Ula has 4 civilizations 1. Thamud 2. Nabatul 3. Kingdom of Dedan 4. Kingdom of Lihyan You can visit other websites. We did not see the old markets, the historical Ola, nor the castle and Kingdom of Dedan and Historical writings of the Kingdom of Lihyan Or the marvel in the Nabataean rose Or airships, or flying to see the mountains of Al-Ula etc ...

@@melissafeds1344 Watch a program on the footsteps of the Arabs on Al Arabiya TV (translated into English) And Dr. Eid Al-Yahya's channel, you will find many of his programs translated into English
Jason I know you are not Muslim, but just wanted to share information what is written in Islamic texts about this place. What is well-known among the historians is that the dwellings of Madyan, to whom the Prophet of Allaah Shu’ayb (peace be upon him) was sent, are in the north-western part of the Arabian peninsula, which nowadays is called al-Bada’, and the surrounding region. Allaah knows best whether that is true. If that is true, then it is not permissible to visit these places with the intention of looking around, because the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him), when he passed by al-Hijr - which was the dwelling place of Thamood - said: “Do not enter the dwelling places of those who wronged themselves, lest there befall you what befell them, unless you are weeping.” Then he covered his head and hastened until he left the valley. Narrated by al-Bukhaari in his Saheeh from Ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him).
It is also mentioned in Ibh Kathir’s commentary of the Qur’an that when Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) passed through Al-Hijr on his way to Tabuk “he covered his head and urged his camel to go faster, saying to his Companions: ‘Do not enter the dwellings of those who were punished unless you are weeping, and if you do not weep then make yourself weep out of fear that perhaps what struck them may also strike you.” Despite the clear warning of Prophet Muhammad, may peace be upon him, why is the Saudi government indeed trying to publicize Mada’in Saleh as a tourist attraction?
A Historical Places the Madain Saleh is arguably the greatest attraction (non-religious) for tourists visiting Saudi Arabia. Located close to the small northern town of Al Ula, this was the second-largest city built by the Nabataeans after Petra over 2000 years ago. Its 131 tombs carved into the free-standing rock of the Arabian desert is a sight to behold. Good Job again Jason thank you.

You can google to see what’s inside the tombs. Where did the bodies go? Interesting place. I read that it was once an oasis with wells. And it’s still closed except for the festival.
@@kareemtheeb1478 While KSA or maybe other Arabian countries do nothing, we did help Syria and all other troubled Muslims. You can't ignore that. Also you can't say this when the things we did for the Ummah in the time of Ottoman were obvious. Okay, maybe we are not governed by sharia, but you shouldn't have said that.
Prophet Mohammad (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him), when he passed by al-Hijr - which was the dwelling place of Thamood - said: “Do not enter the dwelling places of those who wronged themselves, lest there befall you what befell them, unless you are weeping.” Then he covered his head and hastened until he left the valley.

Indeed, that’s why I said “some Saudis” and not “all Saudis”
all the true muslims around the world beleive this place had a curse. our prophit advice us not to enter this place.
It is a Thamudic civilization who built the city.
The Nabateans settled later

THAT LIVE PERFORMANCE IS INSANEEE!!!!🤯😮
Amazingggg!!!
You can google to see what’s inside the tombs. Where did the bodies go? Interesting place. I read that it was once an oasis with wells. And it’s still closed except for the festival.
This is what Western archaeologists say.

Turkey in not a muslim country.
We don't want that
@@kareemtheeb1478 While KSA or maybe other Arabian countries do nothing, we did help Syria and all other troubled Muslims. You can't ignore that. Also you can't say this when the things we did for the Ummah in the time of Ottoman were obvious. Okay, maybe we are not governed by sharia, but you shouldn't have said that.
Turks are Brave and great people. Love from a Pakistani
That was fantastic video.... you have got talent really bro... I like your videos
