View of Uhud from Jabal al Rumah

The cave where the Prophet (pbuh) took rest after his injury is visible behind the lightpost. Hamza's (RA) resting place is found within the fences on the left side of the picture.

One of the major battles the muslims had to fight was the Battle of Uhud. The Makkans wanted revenge for the defat in the Battle of Badr, and they marched with 3000 men to Madinah with the wish to wipe out the Muslims. The Muslim army only counted 700 people. The Prophet (peace be upon him) put his 50 archers on Hill Aynayn, commanding them to not leave their posts unless he himself told them to do so. From that day, this hill is known as Jabal al Rumah - the Archers' Hill.

The Muslims were winning the battle, and the Makkans started to flee. Most of the archers abandonded their post to join the celebration, even though they had not been told to leave their posts. Khalid ibn Al Walid, who had not yet become a Muslim, charged the few archers left on the hill with his cavalry and wiped them out. Suddenly the battle had changed, the Muslims were now facing a battle on two fronts, which led to chaos and many Muslims fell, including the Prophet's uncle, Hadrath Hamza (ra). The Prophet (pbuh) himself was wounded, and rumours that he (pbuh) was martyred were spread, demoralizing the other Muslims.

Some of the followers, including Abu Bakr, Umar Ali and Talha (ra) escorted the injuried Prophet (pbuh) away from the battlefield and towards the Uhud mountain. Then they climbed the mountain to come to a slit/cave where the Prophet (pbuh) rested until the Makkans had finally retreated from the battlefield.

This cave/slit can be seen just behind the lightpost on the left side of the picture.
