This is what you care about. This is not a custom ROM, you are literally downloading the stock ROM and patching Magisk on it.

What tool? Use this one. Your model number is SM-A526B. Put that in there and then select your region, but be careful not to select a carrier-locked version.

Stock ROM is also available on both sammobile and samfw to download. Which is where I got mine when I rooted the same model. You will also need universal safteynet magisk module to pass safteynet.
Edit: if you know how you only need to extract the boot file from the firmware convert it to a .tar and patch that. Much easier than the whole ap file
