Jabal Tsur (روﺛ لﺑﺟ) is a mountain in Saudi Arabia that is located in the lower part of Mecca.
The place is popular among people belonging to the Islamic religion as it houses the well
known Cave of Tsur (روﺛ رﺎﻏ). According to Islamic legends, this cave is where the Holy
Prophet and his companion Abu Bakr As-Siddiq found shelter when fleeing from Quraisy
search parties. It is believed to be a sacred and holy site that was used as a hideout by
Prophet Muhammad and his companions before his Hijrah (migration from Mecca to
Medina), and took refuge here for three days and three nights.

It is believed that in order to protect the two of them from the searching troops, Allah had a
spider weave a web at the cave entrance on the third day of their stay. The web prevented
the soldiers from finding them, and thus, saved them from getting caught. During this time,
several miracles took place at the cave that reaffirmed the faith of the people of Islam in
the benevolence of Allah.
