The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : And we said that it is better not to enter because a person may enter feeling confident that he will weep, but he does not weep. For this reason, our advice is that a person should not enter it. However, unfortunately, some people now consider it mere ruins and say: "These are the traces of the predecessors," and they view them as wonders of craftsmanship. This is evidence of ignorance of what the Sunnah brought from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
