contents In this paper, we remove the assumption on the gradient of the Ricci curvature in Hamilton's matrix Harnack estimate for the heat equation on all closed manifolds, answering a question which has been around since the 1990s. New ingredients include a recent sharp Li-Yau estimate, construction of a suitable vector field and various use of integral arguments, iteration and a little tensor algebra.
