6.5. UMM SALAMAH AND LIFE IN MADINAH
Along with her husband, Umm Salamah lived good and bad days in Madinah. She set a good example of a Muslim wife. Moreover, she devoted her life to raising her children, Salamah, Zaynab and Durrah. Abu Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him) fought in the Battle of Uhud until he was wounded with an arrow. He stayed for a month treating his wound, while his kind wife stood by him looking after his wound until he thought that he was better.
Two months later after Uhud, the Prophet (peace be upon him) appointed Abu Salamah as the leader of a squad to attack Banu Asad (who were gathering to attack Madinah) in Qutn (a mountain adjacent to a well belonging to the tribe of Banu Asad). In this battle, the wound that Abu Salamah had received in Uhud was stirred again. He remained in his bed to be treated until he died on 8 Jumada ath-Thani in the fourth year after Hijrah.
