What the sources establish
Bukhari 3905 describes the stay at Thawr, the hired guide, and departure along the coastal road. The source supports those events without providing a modern surveyed itinerary.
What remains unlocated
The dashed line connects modern city positions only. It is not the coastal path traveled, and the cave’s coordinate is not inferred from a city marker.

The country outlines (1:50 million) and river lines (1:10 million) are Natural Earth public-domain datasets. GeoNames supplies modern-city and mountain coordinates under CC BY 4.0. UNESCO supplies the modern Hegra property coordinate. Coordinates identify modern features; historical connections have separate references.
Shaded boxes are editorial orientation regions. Their edges have no historical boundary claim. The approximate distance scale uses the map center; this is a regional learning atlas, not a navigation tool.
