    We visit the Prophet's Mosque, Al-Masjid an-Nabawi in Medina, Saudi Arabia as Non-Muslim tourists.
    What an amazing experience to witness one of the most holy places in the Islamic world.
    Until recently it was forbidden (Haram) for non-Muslims to visit the Prophet´s mosque in Medina.
    We felt so privileged as foreign tourists to be able to see this sacred place for ourselves and to see how important it is for so many pilgrims from around the world.
    We also visit the holy Quba Mosque, explore parts of Medina and taste delicious Arabic food.

    As a female living in madinah , unfortunately you can’t film inside the female section a lot of women take off their face covers(niqab) to pray comfortably, it’s considered to be problematic to film the faces of the females without permission, however in mens section there is no such boundaries, please consider my advice because I know they won’t be happy to know their faces are filmed in such a Holly place , thank you for considering my message .

    Out of all the western vloggers coming to medina this couple is the only one who didn’t do the cheap clickbait (shock value) like the others. Madina people are known to be super nice. The history of the ansar who took in the prophet and the early converts is extremely moving and well documented. Omar Sulaiman did a wonderful tribute called “loving the ansar”.

    Visiting Madina as a non Muslim vlogger it shows you went in with good intentions unlike others. You spoke with people nicely to people and got the opportunity to get closer to the prophets mosque. You didn't not cover the call for prayer or quran recitation with Muslim. Clearly no one interpreted or showed you ill feelings which is a good sign that Allah has guided you to get closer. So please try to get closer and learn about Islam with an open heart. May Allah guide you towards Islam

    Whether non-Muslims are supposed to or not, it wasn’t the fault of the Frugal Travellers, as they made the appropriate checks. They showed a lot of respect from start to finish.
    Here, in the western world, most people are very tolerant of different faiths and cultures, yet there are still some misconceptions of Islam and the Middle East. These videos from Saudi Arabia and Kuwait are really helping me understand more about our world and the people on it. Please don’t be offended.

If you do end up converting to Islam, then you have to visit Mashid Al Haram in Makkah - that place is out of this world.

    My wife and I went from Jeddah to Medinah and Al-Ula/Mada'in Saleh in December 1986.
    We stayed at the Sheraton outside the then "Muslim-only" zone and then were loaded on to a yellow American schoolbus for the freezing cold trip to the Nabataean tombs - toilet stops behind dunes and very average hotel packed lunch.
    The destination was worth it though.

    If you don't know This was the first well in Saudi Arabia called the Zamzam well. It is about 5,000 years old. The longest-lived well on the surface of this earth is the well that does not dry up. It is sacred in our ancestry because it was from the mercy of my Lord to Mrs. Hagar, “may God be pleased with her,” the second wife of the Prophet Ibrahim or Abraham, “peace be upon him,” when he left her here with her son, the Prophet Ismail or Ishmael “peace be upon him,” in the middle of this desert.
