حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَالْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا شَبَابَةُ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَعْمَرَ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَنِ الدُّبَّاءِ وَالْحَنْتَمِ .

ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Yaʿmar reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade the dubāʾ and the ḥantam.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The report names the vessels elliptically without repeating ‘drinking from’; that sense is supplied from the immediate context of the chapter on drinking vessels.
Dubāʾ is a gourd vessel; ḥantam is a historical jar type whose precise form is uncertain.
قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَنِ الدُّبَّاءِ وَالْحَنْتَمِ .
The report names the dubāʾ and ḥantam without stating the action being forbidden; the chapter context indicates drinking from them.
Is drinking from these vessels the action understood from the elliptical wording?
