He died in 256 AH.
ʿAbd al-Ḥāfiẓ ibn Badrān and Yūsuf ibn Aḥmad informed us, saying:
Mūsā ibn ʿAbd al-Qādir informed us; Saʿīd ibn Aḥmad informed us; ʿAlī ibn Aḥmad al-Bundār informed us; Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Dhahabī narrated to us; Yaḥyā ibn Muḥammad narrated to us; Yaḥyā ibn Ḥakīm narrated to us; Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥasan Maḥbūb narrated to us; Dāwūd ibn Abī Hind narrated, saying:
“I entered, together with al-Ḥasan and Thābit, upon Isḥāq ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn al-Ḥārith al-Hāshimī. Thābit said, ‘Abū Yaʿqūb, relate to Abū Saʿīd the ḥadith of the shoulder.’
Isḥāq then said, ‘Umm Ḥakīm bint al-Zubayr told me that she used to prepare food for the Prophet ﷺ, and he would come to her; occasionally he would eat with her. She related that one day he came to her and she presented him with a shoulder. He began to gnaw at it (1) and ate from it; afterwards he prayed without performing wudu (2).’”
(1) The main manuscript reads yatahassaha; we have adopted the marginal reading. The verb tahassa al-lahm means to peel or strip the surface of the meat.
(2) In Al-Isaba, 4/444, Ibn Hajar attributes the report to Ishaq ibn Rahawayh, through Dawud ibn Abi Hind, stating that Umm Hakim bint al-Zubayr—i.e., Dubaaʿa—used to prepare food for the Prophet. He concludes that Umm Hakim is the teknonym of Dubaaʿa. The hadith is also found in the Musnad of Al-Harith ibn Abi Usama and in Ibn Mandah, with the chain Hammad ibn Salama – ʿAmmar ibn Abi ʿAmmar – Umm Hakim. Ibn Hajar lists other variants: Saʿid ibn Abi ʿAruba, from Qatada, from Salih Abu al-Khalil, from Ishaq ibn ʿAbd Allah ibn al-Harith, from Umm Hakam, from her sister Dubaaʿa; another wording has Saʿid, from Qatada, from Abu al-Khalil, from ʿAbd Allah ibn al-Harith ibn Nawfal, that Umm Hakim bint al-Zubayr narrated to him, without mentioning Dubaaʿa (Ahmad, 6/419). Hammam reports from Qatada, from Ishaq, omitting Abu al-Khalil (cited by Ibn Mandah). Ibn Mandah also records a chain Dawud ibn Abi Hind – Ishaq – Umm Hakim Safiyya, again without naming Dubaaʿa. Parallel narrations come from Ibn ʿAbbas (Bukhari 1/268; Muslim no. 354), ʿUmar ibn Umayya al-Dumari (Bukhari 1/268; Muslim no. 355), and from Maymuna and Abu Rafiʿ (Muslim nos. 356–357).
