It is narrated from Mus'ab bin Abdullah al-Zubayri that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) married Sayyidah Duba'ah bint al-Zubayr bin Abd al-Muttalib (his paternal cousin) to Sayyiduna al-Miqdad bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him). Abdullah and Karimah were born to them. Abdullah was martyred in the Battle of the Camel (fighting) alongside Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her). Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by his body and said: What an evil nephew (he proved to be)!

Sayyidah Umm al-Hakam (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates from her sister Sayyidah Duba'ah bint al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with her) that she offered some meat to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) ate some of it, then prayed and did not perform ablution (again on account of eating the meat).
