[Machine] The battle of Uhud took place in Shawwal in the year 3 AH (11306). According to Ibn Ishaq, the battle of the Trench took place in Shawwal in the year 5 AH. The sheikh, Urwah ibn Zubair, then Az-Zuhri in the narration of Musa ibn Uqbah, then Malik ibn Anas in the battle of the Trench stated that it took place in the year 4 AH, which is more accurate than the saying that it took place in the year 5 AH, due to the agreement of their statements and the hadith of Ibn Umar, along with the continuity of the narration of Ibn Umar and its authenticity and the discontinuity of the statement of others. Some scholars have combined their statements by saying that Uhud took place for two and a half years from the beginning of the Messenger of Allah's arrival in Madinah, and the Trench took place for four and a half years from its beginning. And the one who said it took place in the year 4 AH meant after the completion of four years and before the completion of the fifth year. And the one who said it took place in the year 5 AH meant after the completion of four years and entering the fifth year. And the saying of Ibn Umar about the day of Uhud, when I was fourteen years old, I participated in it when I was fourteen. And his saying about the day of the Trench, when I was fifteen years old, I completed it and added to it, but he did not mention the exact time of the addition because he knew that the ruling is connected to the age of fifteen without the addition. Allah knows best, and this is the most correct method in my opinion. In the story of the Trench in the Maghazi of Abu al-Aswad, it is narrated from Urwah and the Maghazi of Musa ibn Uqbah that there was a period of two years between Uhud and the Trench. Allah knows best.
