Medina

Medina (al-Madinah al-Munawwarah) is a blessed city located in the Hejaz region, on the western side of the Arabian Peninsula, and is one of the two holy cities of Islam. It is the city of the Prophet's migration, the location of the Prophet's Mosque, and the blessed grave of the Messenger of Allah, making it the most revered place in Islam after Mecca. It is referred to by Muslims as 'Medinatun-Nabi' (City of the Prophet) or 'al-Madinah al-Munawwarah' (Illuminated City).

Ottoman Train Station

The Medina Ottoman Train Station (Hejaz Railway Museum) is a historic station that served as the last stop of the Hejaz Railway, built by Sultan II. Abdulhamid between 1900 and 1908. This line, which started from Damascus and reached Medina with a length of 1,464 km, is one of the largest infrastructure projects in the Islamic world and now serves as a museum.

The place where Hz. Hamza was martyred

The place where Hz. Hamza was martyred is the historical site in the battlefield of Uhud where Hz. Hamza b. Abdülmuttalib breathed his last after being struck by a spear thrown by the Abyssinian slave Wahshi b. Harb during the Battle of Uhud (3 AH/625 AD). According to Ibn Shabba, this place is located on a small hill near the Ahmer Valley close to Mount Uhud.

The Quraysh Army Headquarters

The Quraysh Army Headquarters is the plain north of Mount Uhud where the approximately 3,000-strong Meccan army established its headquarters and positioned itself before the battle during the Battle of Uhud (3 AH/625 CE). The battle plan was devised from this location, and the cavalry unit commanded by Khalid ibn al-Walid and Ikrimah ibn Abu Jahl also moved from here.

Hz. Khalid ibn al-Walid and the Route of the Polytheist Cavalry's Attack

The Route of Hz. Khalid ibn al-Walid and the Polytheist Cavalry's Attack is the historical route that Khalid ibn al-Walid (who was not yet a Muslim) took advantage of the evacuation of the Archers' Hill during the Battle of Uhud to encircle the Muslims from behind and change the course of the battle. This sudden raid constitutes the most critical turning point of the Battle of Uhud.
