جبل أحد - تل الرماة - المدينة المنورة

Great place to visit for any Muslim. Standing on top of the the archers mountain one can see the entire area and picture the battle scene if one has read the history of Battle of Uhud in detail. On front of Majid e Nabvi(Nearer to Green Dome/ Jannat ul Baqi side) there are hiaces that offer ziyarat tour for 10/15 SAR. They will also visit Uhud but only give you 10 mins at this place. If you are looking to explore more try to book a private taxi or tour. They charge 120 SAR per trip and they visit more Ziyarats than the shared vagons that will visit only 4 ziyarat (Ohud, Khandaq, Majid e Qibtalain, Masjid e Quba). 10 to 15 mins stay max in all of these places if you take the shared vagons from Majid E Nabvi front.

Archers' Hill Uhud. The Archers' Hill is a small mountain located in front of Mount Uhud. The hill is also known as Jabal al-Rumah and Jabal Ainain.

Historical site where the Battle of Uhud took place. This is the battle that occurred after the Battle of Badr. An immersive experience into history. My advice would be to read or listen to a podcast on the Battle of Uhud so that when you arrive you can visually place the history. The site has a Mosque open for prayers and some vendors selling refreshment. You can climb the small hill where historically its said the archers (against the Prophets's order) left the Battle as the believed the battle was won. This was a monumental point as it created an opening for the Meccan cavalry and gave them the victory they sought. Leading the Muslims to seek refuge into the actual mountain of Uhud (Jebel Uhud). Furthermore, whilst there give Salaam and blessings to the martyrs of the battle including Hamza (رضي الله عنه), Abdullah bin Jasht (رضي الله عنه) and Mus'ab bin Umair (رضي الله عنه) who were all martyred in the Battle of Uhud. However, just be mindful to avoid shirk. "Visit the graves, for they remind you of the Hereafter." (Narrated by Muslim, 976). It was reported that 'Aa'ishah said that when it was her night for the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) to stay with her, he would go out during the latter part of the night to (the cemetery of) al-Baqee' and say, "Peace be upon you, dwellings of the believing people. There has come to you that which you were promised, , and if Allaah wills we will follow you soon. O Allaah, forgive the people of Baqee' al-Gharqad." (Narrated by Muslim, 974). It is bid'ah (innovation), to visit graves for the purpose of calling upon their occupants, seeking their help, offering sacrifices to them and making vows to them. This is forbidden and is a major form of Shirk (shirk akbar). Connected to this is the practice of visiting graves to offer du'aa', perform salaah and read Qur'aan there. This is all bid'ah and is not prescribed in Islam. Finally, please bear in mind the hot weather. So, go early before the sun is high or after Maghrib once the sun is set to have a comfortable experience.

Mount Uhud and Archers' Hill are popular among Muslim pilgrims who visit Medina. During the battle or uhud, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) ordered 50 archers to stay on the hill where they were supposed to protect the Muslim army from the opposing army's attack. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) gave the archers strict instructions not to move. However, during the battle, the archers deserted their post thinking the battle was over and went to collect the spoils of war. At the same time, the Meccan army, led by Khalid ibn al-Walid, attacked the Muslims, which resulted in a great loss of about 70 lives and injuries to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
