The Ruling on Going to the Dead Sea and the Dwellings of the Punished

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it permissible to go to what is called the Dead Sea, and to the dwellings of the punished?

Answer:
No, do not go there with the intention of visiting them. However, if you pass through them on your way to work, that is different. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by the dwellings of Thamud on his way to Tabuk. Yes.
