Location found

As an alternative, the location could be in the vast Western Desert of Egypt. The country is Arabic-speaking and also uses Eastern Arabic numerals. The Great Sand Sea, located in this desert, would also appear as a large, featureless area on a map. The visual evidence is consistent with this region, though the sheer scale and emptiness of the Rub' al Khali makes it a slightly more probable candidate.

The Sahara Desert in Algeria, particularly large sand seas like the Grand Erg Oriental, is another possibility. Algeria is an Arabic-speaking country. However, the use of Eastern Arabic numerals in digital interfaces can be less common in the Maghreb region compared to the Arabian Peninsula, making this a slightly less likely, but still plausible, candidate based on the visual evidence of the blank map.
