In the nullification of the boycott document (The Sealed Nectar, pp.110-111)
Hisham ibn Amr went to him to rouse him, and said: "Are you content to eat food while your maternal uncles are in the state you know?" Zuhayr then went to al-Hajun and circled the House. He stood among Quraysh demanding that the document be torn, and so he was the first to speak for its annulment (the annulment of the document) 1 2. His mother was Atika bint Abd al-Muttalib 1.
