The tour begins at Uhud Mountain, the site of the great Battle of Uhud, where seventy companions, including the Master of Martyrs Hamza ibn Abdul Muttalib (RA), were martyred.
You then visit Bani Haritha Mosque (Masjid Al-Mustarah), located within the homes of the Bani Haritha tribe, where the Prophet (SAW) once rested on his return from the battle. Next is Masjid Al-Dira, a small mosque linked to the battle, named after the armour (dira) the Prophet (SAW) is said to have worn there in preparation.
You continue to the Seven Mosques (Al-Masajid as-Sab’a), situated along the western side of Mount Sela’, marking the historic trench dug to defend Madinah in the fifth year of Hijra. These mosques stand on sites where Muslim troops were positioned during the Battle of the Trench in 627 CE.
After lunch on your own, you visit Al-Ghars Well, a well beloved by the Prophet (SAW), from which he drank, made wudhu, and requested that its water be used to wash him after his demise. We then visit Al-Faqir (Salman Al-Farsi) Well, historically linked to Salman Al-Farsi (RA) and his orchard.
The next stop is Al-Hajim Well and the date farm, a landmark believed to predate Islam and a well from which the Prophet (SAW) also drank.
Before returning to the hotel, you stop at Souq Al Kamasha, one of Madinah’s oldest markets with over 430 years of history. After a short stroll, you return to the hotel.
