It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: By "and that they will not disobey you in what is right" is meant that women pledge allegiance on the condition that they will not wail (lament for the dead).

It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that after the death of Abu Salamah and the completion of her waiting period (‘iddah), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent her a proposal of marriage. She said, "O Messenger of Allah! There are three qualities in me: I am old in age." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "I am older than you." She said, "I am a jealous woman." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "I will pray to Allah, and He will remove your jealousy." She said, "I have children." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "They are under the responsibility of Allah and His Messenger." Thus, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) married her.

Then, whenever the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would come to her for privacy, as soon as she saw him, she would take her daughter Zainab and seat her in her lap, and eventually the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would leave in the same way. When Hazrat Ammar bin Yasir, who was the foster brother of Hazrat Umm Salamah, came to know of this, he came to Hazrat Umm Salamah and said, "Where is that dirty girl through whom you have been causing harm to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" and he took her away with him.

This time, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came and entered the house, he looked around in all four corners of the room and then asked about the girl, "Where has Zanab (Zainab) gone?" She replied, "Ammar came and took her with him." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had privacy with her and said, "If you wish, I can spend seven days with you, but then I will have to spend seven days with each of my other wives as well." She said, "No, please fix my turn (as usual)."

It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When a person is afflicted by a calamity and says 'Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un' and then supplicates, 'O Allah! Reward me for my affliction and grant me something better in exchange for it,' Allah Almighty will reward him for his affliction and grant him something better in exchange for it." When my husband Abu Salamah passed away, I thought, "Who could be better than Abu Salamah?" Yet Allah Almighty gave me the strength of dignity, and I recited this supplication. After my waiting period ('iddah) was over, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me a proposal of marriage.

Muhammad bin Tahlah says that I said to Abu Salamah that the husband of your wet nurse, Salim, does not perform a new ablution after eating something cooked on fire. So he struck Salim on the chest and said, "I bear witness regarding Umm Salamah, who was the honorable wife of the Prophet (peace be upon him), that she bore witness regarding the Prophet (peace be upon him) that he used to perform ablution after eating something cooked on fire."

It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform Witr with seven or five rak‘ahs, and he would not separate them with salam or speech in any way.

It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that at the time of the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) passing, most of his prayers were performed sitting, and the most beloved deed to the Prophet (peace be upon him) was that which was done consistently, even if it was little.

It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the last advice of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was to take care of the prayer and to treat your slaves well. While repeating this, the blessed chest of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) began to rattle and his tongue became still.

It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Soon there will come six rulers, some of whose habits you will find good and some you will disapprove of. So whoever disapproves will be free of responsibility, and whoever expresses dislike will remain safe. However, the one who is pleased and follows them (his case is different). The companions asked, "O Messenger of Allah, should we not fight against them?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "No, as long as they lead you in the five prayers."

It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would leave the house, he would recite this supplication: In the name of Allah, I place my trust in Allah. O Allah! We seek refuge with You from slipping or being led astray, or committing injustice or being wronged, or behaving ignorantly or having ignorance shown to us.
