Event of Jabal e Rumah

by Ady Grewal Content writer
Jabal Rumah is a small hill opposite of Mountain Uhud where Prophet ﷺ had positioned archers during the Battle of Uhud. Prophet ﷺ strictly instructed archers not to move from their position until they are called to leave the positions. Instead of obeying the instructions of Prophet ﷺ all archers disobeyed Prophet ﷺ and left their positioned when opponents had run away. As opponents came to know that archers had left their positions they immediately, attacked behind the Jabal e Rumah and resultantly Muslims had to face great loss. 

Mountain is still witnessed that whoever does not follow the Messenger of Allah, certainly will fall down. Several people from all corner of the world visit such little mountain which contains a big fact. Each step can be visited through the Hajj and Umrah Tour Guide who better knowledge of all Islamic places in the whole Arab Peninsula. 

At that little mountain during the Battle of Uhud Prophet (ﷺ) appointed 50 archers under the command of Abdullah bin Jubair (RA) and said to him, “Drive off the horses from us, lest we should be attacked from the back.  Stand steadily at your positions whether we win or lose the battle. Make sure that we are not attacked from your side.”

No doubt, Battle was obviously in the favor of the Muslims and infidels forced to run from the battlefield. After ran away from infidels, Muslims started to collect stuff such as swords, javelin, and many more. When archers saw that their brothers are collecting the Battle stuff they immediately left their positions where they had been positioned by the Prophet ﷺ. Abdullah bin Jubair (RA) tried to check them by reminding them of the Prophet’s command and implored them to stay on. But no more than ten archers would listen to him, others argued that the orders given by the Prophet (ﷺ) were only for the duration of the definite fight. The enemy cavalry then observed the careless clearance in the back, made a verge movement, forced a passage through it, and fell right on the back of the Muslims, who had left the place and were busy with the pickings. Abdullah bin Jubair (RA) embraced martyrdom on that spot. The sudden attack by the infidels created a short-term misperception in the Muslim lines and they stopped chasing the Makkan army. The confused state of the Muslim lines encouraged Ikramah bin Abi Jahal and Abu Sufyan to stop escaping and they gathered their soldiers together to launch another attack on the Muslims while they were in the state of turmoil. The sudden attack only added to the distress and wounded in the Muslim positions.

The situation was so that Anas bin Nadhr (RA) saw Sa’ad bin Ma’az (RA) was passing in front of him. He shouted to him: “O Sa’ad! Where are you going? By Allah! I am feeling the fragrance of Heaven coming from Mount Uhud.” Saying this, he fought with full might until he got martyrdom. At the end of the battle, it was found that his body had been mangled and disfigured in such a way that only his sister could identify him, and that hardly from the fingertips. More than eighty cuts of arrows and swords were counted on his body. The spot tells how Sahaba devoted their lives for Islam and pilgrims who go through Cheap Hajj Packages UK must visit the place to refresh their faith. 

The false victory of Quraysh disappointment to the Prophet (ﷺ), particularly as the archers had violated a direct instruction. At that moment Jibrael (AS) came with the following message of Allah (SWT), “By the kindness of Allah you have unstiffened towards them. Had you been uneven, hard-hearted, they would have spread away from you. So forgive them, ask forgiveness for them and ask them in undertakings. Once you make a decision, then faith in Allah. Allah grants reward those who have faith in Him.” [3:159] Allah (SWT) ordered Prophet ﷺ to pardon them, called them in order to realize what they had done so that they feel free to apologize and restore their self-respect.
