Events:• Prophet decided to fight outside Madinah upon the
suggestion of most of his followers, although he himself had a different opinion
• Muslims, numbered 700, marched to Uhud and encamped on the rising ground with mount Uhud on their back- their position was advantageous as the Makkan army couldn’t approach them
• Upon reaching the battlefield, Prophet appointed 50 archers under the command of Abdullah bin Jubair- why?
1. To protect the pass in Uhud mountain2. To defend Muslims from any possible
attack by the enemy from the back • He instructed them clearly not leave their position under
any circumstances
“Remember that morning you left your household to post the faithful at their station for the battle”
(3:121, Al-Imran )

great deal of booty (spoils of war)• Muslims began to collect it• When the 50 archers saw that the victory was certain,
about 35- 36 of them left their positions and came to collect booty
“When you, with (Allah's) permission were about to annihilate your enemy- until you (the archers)
flinched and fell disputing about the order and disobeyed it”
(3:152, Al-Imran )

Conduct of Prophet in the Battle of Uhud• He sought advice from his followers• Accepted the opinion of the majority• Possessed strong nerves with unshaken faith, i.e. when 300
hypocrites deserted his army• Fully believed in God’s promise: “They (non believers) will do you no
harm barring a trifling annoyance”• He proved himself a superb strategist when he appointed archers to
protect the rear of the Muslim army• Had close observation and far sightedness• Being injured he even remained firm and continues to lead his army• Challenging situations couldn’t lower his spirit or shaken him• He knew well how to manage crisis against all odds
(PBUH)
Muslim rulers in the contemporary world may learn lesson by prophet’s conduct by consulting their subordinates on important national issues and by keeping faith even in hard times. They also learn to be firm and strong.
