Muhammad ordered the archers to attack the enemy with their arrows and to stay on the hill and not to come down. Needless to say, given the defeat of the Muslims at the Battle of Uhud, this was not followed. Specifically, the archers breached Muhammad's orders by leaving their assigned posts to despoil the Meccan camp, when it appeared that victory was imminent. However, this was not the case and the Meccan general Khalid ibn al-Walid led a surprise cavalry attack, decimating the Muslim forces.
