Uhud Mountain Landmarks: Masjid al-Fasah and Uhud Cave

IQNA – Nestled on the northern slope of Mount Uhud in Medina, two historic sites stand side by side, marking key moments from the pivotal Battle of Uhud.

Uhud Mountain Landmarks: Masjid al-Fasah and Prophet’s Shelter

 

One is the narrow crevice in the mountain where Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) sought refuge after being wounded.

The other is Masjid al-Fasah, believed to be the place where he led prayers following the battle.

Recently restored, the mosque—along with the mountain crevice—has become a prominent destination for religious and cultural visitors.
