Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

He likewise narrated hadith from his mother. Those who transmitted reports from him include Saʿid ibn al-Musayyib, ʿUrwah, Wahb ibn Kaysan, Qudamah ibn Ibrahim, Thabit al-Bunani, Abu Wajzah Yazid ibn ʿUbayd al-Saʿdi, his own son Muhammad ibn ʿUmar, and others. Through milk-kinship, the Prophet ﷺ was his uncle. It is related from Ibn al-Zubayr that he said, “ʿUmar is two years older than I am.” It is also said that when ʿAli asked Umm Salamah to accompany him on the march for the Camel engagement, she sent her son ʿUmar in her stead.

He lived to an advanced age and became the elder of the Banu Makhzum. Muhammad ibn Saʿd states that he died during the caliphate of ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Marwan, while Ibn al-Athir records that his death occurred in 83 AH (1).

And his brother:

64 – Salamah ibn Abi Salamah ibn ʿAbd al-Asad al-Qurashi

He, too, lived a long life but did not transmit even a single hadith. He is the one who gave his mother, Umm Salamah, in marriage to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ (2); after the ʿUmrat al-Qaḍāʾ (3) the Prophet ﷺ rewarded him by marrying him to his uncle’s daughter, Ummamah.

(1) He notes this in Asad al-Ghaba, vol. 4, p. 183, yet in his Tarikh, vol. 5, p. 525, he dates the death to the year 86 AH. (*) Al-Muhabbar, p. 64; Al-Istiab, p. 641; Asad al-Ghaba, 2/429; Tarikh al-Islam, 3/156; Al-Wafi bi-l-Wafayat, 15/318; Al-‘Iqd al-Thamin, 4/598; Al-Isaba, 2/66. (2) This is Ibn Ishaq’s view, transmitted and accepted by several scholars; Ibn Hajar in Al-Isaba, 2/66, even prefers it to the opinion that her marriage was arranged by her son ‘Umar, although he had authenticated the isnad of the previously cited hadith in al-Nasa’i that explicitly names ‘Umar as the guardian. (3) The ‘umrat al-qada (misprinted in the present edition as “al-‘aqaba”) occurred in Dhu al-Qa‘da of the seventh year. It was so called because the Prophet concluded a settlement with the people of Mecca regarding it; see Zad al-Ma‘ad, 2/90-91 and 3/370-371.
وَحَدَّثَ أَيْضاً عَنْ: أُمِّهِ. رَوَى عَنْهُ: سَعِيْدُ بنُ المُسَيِّبِ، وَعُرْوَةُ، وَوَهْبُ بنُ كَيْسَانَ، وَقُدَامَةُ بنُ إِبْرَاهِيْمَ، وَثَابِتٌ البُنَانِيُّ، وَأَبُو وَجْزَةَ يَزِيْدُ بنُ عُبَيْدٍ السَّعْدِيُّ، وَابْنُهُ؛ مُحَمَّدُ بنُ عُمَرَ، وَغَيْرُهُم. وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَمَّهُ مِنَ الرَّضَاعِ. وَرُوِيَ عَنِ: ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ: عُمَرُ أَكْبَرُ مِنِّي بِسَنَتَيْنِ. وَقِيْلَ: طَلَبَ عَلِيٌّ مِنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ أَنْ تَسِيرَ مَعَهُ نَوْبَةَ الجَمَلِ، فَبَعَثَتْ مَعَهُ ابْنَهَا عُمَرَ. وَطَالَ عُمُرُهُ، وَصَارَ شَيْخَ بَنِي مَخْزُوْمٍ. قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بنُ سَعْدٍ: تُوُفِّيَ فِي خِلاَفَةِ عَبْدِ المَلِكِ بنِ مَرْوَانَ. وَنَقَلَ ابْنُ الأَثِيْرِ: أَنَّ مَوْتَهُ كَانَ فِي سَنَةِ ثَلاَثٍ وَثَمَانِيْنَ (١) . وَأَخُوْهُ: ٦٤ - سَلَمَةُ بنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بنِ عَبْدِ الأَسَدِ القُرَشِيُّ * طَالَ عُمُرُهُ، وَمَا رَوَى كَلِمَةً. وَهُوَ الَّذِي زَوَّجَ رَسُوْلَ اللهِ ﷺ بِأُمِّهِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ (٢) ، فَجَزَاهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَعْدَ عُمْرَةِ القَضِيَّةِ (٣) بِأَنْ زَوَّجَهُ بِبِنْتِ عَمِّهِ أُمَامَةَ
(١) ذكر ذلك في " أسد الغابة " في ترجمته ٤ / ١٨٣، ولكنه في " تاريخه " ٥ / ٥٢٥ أرخ وفاته سنة ٨٦. (*) المحبر: ٦٤ الاستيعاب: ٦٤١، أسد الغابة ٢ / ٤٢٩، تاريخ الإسلام ٣ / ١٥٦، الوافي بالوفيات ١٥ / ٣١٨، العقد الثمين ٤ / ٥٩٨، الإصابة ٢ / ٦٦. (٢) كذا قال ابن إسحاق، ونقله عنه غير واحد وأقره حتى إن الحافظ في " الإصابة " ٢ / ٦٦ جعله أثبت من قول من قال: إن الذي زوجه إياها ابنها عمر، مع أنه قد صحح إسناد حديث النسائي المتقدم، المصرح بأن الذي تولى تزويجها هو عمر. (٣) عمرة القضية - وقد تحرفت في المطبوع إلى " العقبة " - كانت في ذي القعدة سنة سبع، سميت بذلك، لأنه قاضى أهل مكة عليها، انظر " زاد المعاد " ٢ / ٩٠، ٩١، و٣ / ٣٧٠، ٣٧١.
