Fought in 3 AH, the Battle of Uhud is the second-greatest battle fought between the Muslim army under the leadership of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and the leaders of the Quraysh. The Battle of Uhud took place in the name of revenge one year after the Battle of Badr and three years following the migration to Madinah.
Allah’s SWT message in the Holy Quran to the believers of the Battle of Uhud:
“So do not become weak (against your enemy), nor be sad, and you will be superior (in victory) if you are indeed (true) believers. If a wound (and killing) has touched you, be sure a similar wound (and killing) has touched the others. And so are the days (good and not so good), We give to men by turns, that Allah may test those who believe, and that He may take martyrs from among you. And Allah likes not the Zalimeen (polytheists and wrongdoers). And that Allah may test (or purify) the believers (from sins) and destroy the disbelievers. Do you think that you will enter Paradise before Allah tests those of you who fought (in His Cause) and (also) tests those who are patient? You did indeed wish for martyrdom (Ash-shahadah) before you met it. Now you have seen it openly with your own eyes.”
[Surah Al-Imran: 139-143]
