The website is occupied with clarifying practical rulings for inquirers. Such a question does not benefit one with knowledge, nor does any act of worship depend on it. Therefore, it would have been more appropriate to disregard it and seek what brings one closer to the Lord of the Worlds, the Most Glorified, the Most High. Nevertheless, historians and biographers, such as Ibn Kathir and others, mentioned that Ayyub (Job), peace be upon him, was in the land of Rum, in a place called Al-Buthaynah in the land of Hawran. He lived there and died there.
