From Ibn ʿUmar (may Allah be pleased with them both): the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his Companions — that is, when they reached al-Ḥijr, the dwellings of Thamūd —: "Do not enter upon these people who were punished unless you are weeping; and if you are not weeping, then do not enter upon them, lest there befall you what befell them." Agreed upon (al-Bukhārī and Muslim). In another narration he said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by al-Ḥijr, he said: "Do not enter the dwellings of those who wronged themselves, lest there befall you what befell them, unless you are weeping." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ covered his head and quickened his pace until he had crossed the valley.
