The name 'Samama' also appears in the context of a famous Hadith narrated by Imam Ali Zainul Abidin (as). According to this Hadith, there was a woman named Umm Salama bint Abu Salama who was a resident of Medina and a companion of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). She had a slave-girl named Samama. Once, Umm Salama took Samama to the mosque for prayer. The Prophet (pbuh) saw her and asked, 'Who is this?' Umm Salama replied, 'She is my slave-girl.' The Prophet (pbuh) then said, 'Set her free, for I have seen a man of Paradise in her.' Umm Salama freed Samama, who later became known as 'Umm Salama the Prophet's freed-slave'.
