    $("ul.tabs li").click(function() {

        $("ul.tabs li").removeClass("selected"); //Remove any "active" class
        $(this).addClass("selected"); //Add "active" class to selected tab
        $(".tab_content").hide(); //Hide all tab content

        var activeTab = $(this).find("a").attr("href"); //Find the href attribute value to identify the active tab + content

Something like this maybe?

var openTab = $(location.hash).filter(".tab_content");

if(openTab.length){
  $("a[href='"+location.hash+"']").click();
}

If you're looking at using the hash in a URL to pre-select a tab when the page loads, simply use window.location.hash to store an identifier of the current selected tab (element ID?), then read window.location.hash when the document ready event fires, and react to any element ID in there.
