'''The Cave of Thawr''' is a cave located on [[Mount Thawr (Mecca)|Mount Thawr]] in the south of [[Mecca]]. This cave is the place where the Prophet (PBUH) sought refuge during the migration to Medina."
"Badr Martyrs Cemetery."
"The graveyard of the martyrs of Badr is located in the vicinity of the city of Medina in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. According to historical accounts, the martyrs of the Battle of Badr are buried there. Badr is situated near the city of Medina. The cemetery of the Badr martyrs, according to historical travelogues, was an area adjacent to the Arish Mosque. Today, there is still a cemetery with a wall in the city of Badr, recognized as the burial place of the martyrs of Badr."


==Hiding of the Prophet (PBUH)==
"The Battle of Badr"
"The Battle of Badr was the first military expedition led by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in a region of the same name, occurring in the year 2 AH (After Hijra). At that time, Badr was a gathering place for the Arabs, hosting an annual market for eight days starting from the beginning of the month of Dhu al-Qa'dah."(1)( Wāqidī, Muḥammad b. ʿUmar al-. ''Al-Maghāzī'.vol1.p384,,, • Najafī, Sayyid Muḥammad Bāqir. Madīna shināsī.vol2.p28). "The Battle of Badr, which lasted half a day, concluded with the killing of seventy and the capture of the same number of polytheists. Only fourteen Muslims, consisting of six migrants and eight supporters, achieved martyrdom in this battle."(2)(' Ibn Saʿd, Muḥammad b. Manīʿ al-Ḥāshimī al-Baṣrī. ''Al-Ṭabaqāt al-kubrā.vol2.p12,,, Wāqidī, Muḥammad b. ʿUmar al-. ''Al-Maghāzī'.vol1.p145-152).


The significance of [[Mount Thawr]] lies in the fact that the Prophet (PBUH), during the [[migration to Yathrib]], concealed himself in a cave atop this mountain for three days. The polytheists, utilizing skilled trackers such as [[Kurz bin Alqamah]], pursued him and traced his footsteps to the entrance of Thawr Cave. The nesting of birds, the weaving of spider webs, or the growth of a short-lived plant at the cave's entrance left the polytheists discouraged in their search for the Prophet. After a three-day stay in this cave, the prophet (PBUH) continued his journey to Yathrib.<ref>Ibn Saʿd, ''Al-Ṭabaqāt al-kubrā'', vol. 1, p. 177; Balādhurī, ''Ansāb al-ashrāf''.vol. 1, p. 307; Maqrizī, ''Imtāʿ al-asmāʾ.vol. 1, p. 58.</ref>
"Martyrs of Badr
Apparently, the passage along the route chosen by the Prophet (PBUH) for ascending the mountain during the migration posed difficulties, leading to bleeding in his feet during the ascent.<ref>Fākihī,  ''Akhbār Makka fī qadīm al-dahr wa ḥaīthih'', vol. 4, p. 80.
Most historians have identified the martyrs of Badr as fourteen individuals. These fourteen include the following individuals:"(3) • Zāhidī Muqaddam, Muḥammad. Qazwi-yi badr, shuhadā wa mazārāt-i ān .p91).

"Martyrs of Badr from the Migrants:
==Location==
At the summit of [[Mount Thawr]], there are two adjacent caves, both considered hiding places of the Prophet (PBUH) during the migration to Yathrib (Medina). Considering the companionship of [[Abu Bakr]] and also [[Amer bin Fuhayrah]], the guide of the route, it can be said that the larger cave served as the place of concealment. The dimensions of this cave are 5.3 square meters in length and width, with a height of 1.3 meters.<ref>Qāʾidān, ''Tārīkh wa āthār-i Islāmī-yi Makka wa Madīna'', p. 96.
</ref>
Verse 40 of Surah At-Tawbah, in which Allah reports about the support of the Prophet and his companion, refers to this event and the cave.<ref>Ibn Kathīr, ''Al-Bidāya wa l-nihāya'', vol. 6, p. 184.</ref>
==Visit to Thawr Cave==


Thawr Cave has always been a focal point for Muslims, and many individuals throughout different periods have ascended the mountain to see it.<ref>abbāgh, ''Taḥṣīl al-marām'', vol. 1, p. 511-512.</ref>
1. Ubaidah bin Harith
"Apparently, in the 14th century AH (20th century CE), it was customary for the people of Mecca to visit this mountain on Saturdays, while the rest of the days were for others to visit.<ref>Ṣabrī Pāshā, ''Mawsūʿa mirʾāt al-ḥaramayn'', vol. 2, p. 912.</ref> At that time, stone markers were placed along the path and on top of the mountain to guide visitors.<ref>Ibrāhīm Rafʿat Pāshā. ''Mirʾāt al-ḥaramayn'', vol. 1, p. 61.</ref>

==Changes to the Cave Entrance==
Martyrs of Badr from the Ansar:
Kurdi (d. 1400 AH/ 1979-80) claimed, referring to a phrase from the Qamus al-Muhit and Abu Bakr's account of staying in the cave, that the entrance to the cave was originally at its upper section during the Prophet's time and that the current entrances were later created.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'' , vol. 2, p. 394; Gāzī,  ''Ifādat al-anām'', vol. 2, p. 18.</ref>


Ibn Jubayr (d. 612 AH/1215-6) mentioned two entrances for the cave, with one of them being wider, and people mostly used that entrance to access the cave.<ref>Ibn Jubayr, ''Riḥla Ibn Jubayr'', p. 124-125; Warthīlānī, ''Al-Riḥla al- Warthīlānīyya'', vol. 2, p. 475; Ibn Zahīra,  ''Al-Jāmiʿ al-laṭīf fī faḍl-i Makka wa ahluhā wa bināʾ al-Bayt al-Sharīf'', p. 300.</ref>
1. Sa'd bin Khuthaimah
Based on this report, apparently, during those periods, the second entrance was created for the easy access of pilgrims to the cave. This was because the main opening of the cave, which was located on the [[Qibla]] side, was very narrow, requiring a specific skill to pass through. Around the year 800 AH/1397-8, the main entrance of the cave was slightly expanded by cutting rocks.<ref>Fāsī al-Makkī, ''Shifāʾ al-gharām bi akhbār al-balad al-ḥarām'', vol. 1, p. 280-281;  Ibn Fahd, ''Itḥāf al-warā bi akhbār umm al-qurā'', vol. 3, p. 409.</ref>

5. Rafi bin Mu'awi
6. Harithah bin Suraqah bin Harith
7. Awf bin Harith bin Rufa'ah
8. Mu'adh bin Harith bin Rufa'ah."


"Nevertheless, subsequent reports still narrate the small size of the cave entrance. For instance, in the year 810AH/1407-8, the entrance to the cave was temporarily closed due to overcrowding.<ref>Fāsī al-Makkī, ''Al-ʿAqd al-thamīn fī tārīkh al-balad al-ʾamīn'', vol. 3, p. 255; Ibn Fahd, ''Itḥāf al-warā bi akhbār umm al-qurā'', vol. 3, p. 458-459.</ref>
"The city of Badr"
"Another report indicates that during the time of [[Sharif Aun al-Rafi']] (r. 1299 AH/ 1881-2), the Emir of Mecca ordered the expansion of the cave entrance.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'', vol. 2; p. 395.</ref>
"Today, the region of Badr, also known as Badr Hunayn, has transformed into a city located 153 kilometers from Medina and 310 kilometers from Mecca. Its population in the year 1425 AH was over 33,000 people, and considering the population of its suburbs, it exceeded 58,000 people."(4)( • Zāhidī Muqaddam, Muḥammad.
