[AI] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , used to lead the people in prayer, and Hassan ibn Ali would climb on his back when he prostrated. He did this more than once, so they said to him, "By Allah, you do something that we have not seen you do to anyone else." Al-Mubarak said that he mentioned something and then said, "Indeed, this son of mine is a leader, and Allah will reconcile through him between two factions of the Muslims." Hassan said, "By Allah, after he becomes a leader, not even a drop of blood will be shed in his caliphate."

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ وَكَانَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ يَثِبُ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ إِذَا سَجَدَ فَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ غَيْرَ مَرَّةٍ فَقَالُوا لَهُ وَاللهِ إِنَّكَ لَتَفْعَلُ بِهَذَا شَيْئًا مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ تَفْعَلُهُ بِأَحَدٍ قَالَ الْمُبَارَكُ فَذَكَرَ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِيهَذَا سَيِّدٌ وَسَيُصْلِحُ اللهُ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَقَالَ الْحَسَنُ فَوَاللهِ وَاللهِ بَعْدَ أَنْ وَلِيَ لَمْ يُهْرَقْ فِي خِلَافَتِهِ مِلْءُ مِحْجَمَةٍ مِنْ دَمٍ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to lead us in prayer, and Al-Hasan would come while he was young. Whenever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prostrated, Al-Hasan would climb on his back and the Prophet ﷺ would raise his head gently until he put him down. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, truly you do with this boy something that we have never seen you do with anyone else." He replied, "Indeed, he is my flower from this world. Surely, my son here is a leader, and perhaps Allah will reconcile through him two factions of Muslims."

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي بِنَا وَكَانَ الْحَسَنُ يَجِيءُ وَهُوَ صَغِيرٌ فَكَانَ كُلَّمَا سَجَدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَثَبَ عَلَى رَقَبَتِهِ وَظَهْرِهِ فَيَرْفَعُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ رَفَعًا رَقِيقًا حَتَّى يَضَعَهُ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ تَصْنَعُ بِهَذَا الْغُلَامِ شَيْئًا مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ تَصْنَعُهُ بِأَحَدٍ فَقَالَ «إِنَّهُ رَيْحَانَتِي مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا سَيِّدٌ وَعَسَى اللَّهُ أَنْ يُصْلِحَ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ»

قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُصَلِّي بِنَا فَكَانَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ يَجِئُ وَهُوَ صَغِيرٌ كُلَّمَا سَجَدَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَثَبَ عَلَى رَقَبَتِهِ وَظَهْرِهِ فَيَرْفَعُ النَّبِيُّ رَأْسَهُ رَفْعًا رَفِيقًا حَتَّى يَضَعَهُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ لَتَصْنَعُ بِهَذَا الصَّبِيِّ شَيْئًا مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ تَصْنَعُهُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ رَيْحَانَتِي مِنَ الدُّنْيَا أَنَّ ابْنِيَ هَذَا سَيِّدٌ عَسَى أَنْ يُصْلِحَ اللَّهُ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ قَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَعَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ وَمُبَارَكِ بْنِ فَضَالَةَ لَيْسَ بِحَدِيثِهِ بَأْسٌ قَدْ رَوَى عَنْهُ قَوْمٌ كَثِيرٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ used to pray, and Al-Hasan would come to him as a young child. Whenever the Prophet ﷺ prostrated, Al-Hasan would climb onto his back and shoulders. The Prophet ﷺ would then raise his head gently to remove him, and the people said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, you do something that we have never seen you do with anyone else." He replied, "He is my little darling from this world. Perhaps Allah will reconcile two groups of Muslims through him, for he is a leader."

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فَكَانَ الْحَسَنُ يَجِيءُ وَهُوَ صَبِيُّ صَغِيرٌ فَكَانَ كُلَّمَا سَجَدَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَثَبَ عَلَى رَقَبَتِهِ وَظَهْرِهِ فَيَرْفَعُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ رَفَعًا رَفِيقًا حَتَّى يَضَعَهُ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ لَتَصْنَعُ بِهَذَا الْغُلَامِ شَيْئًا مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ تَصْنَعُهُ «إِنَّهُ رَيْحَانَتِي مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا سَيِّدٌ وَعَسَى أَنْ يُصْلِحَ اللهُ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ»

"عَنْ أَبِى بَكْرَةَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ يُصَلِّى بِالنَّاسِ، فَإِذَا سَجَدَ وَثَبَ الحَسنُ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ أَوْ عَلَى عُنُقِهِ، فَرَفَعَ رَأسَهُ فَيَضَعُهُ وَضْعًا رَفِيقًا لئَلَّا يُصْرَعَ، فَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ غَيْرَ مَرَّةٍ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ ضَمَّهُ وَجَعَلَهُ بِقَلبِهِ، قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ الله: إِنَّكَ لَتَفْعَلُ بِهَذَا شَيْئًا مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ تَفْعَلُهُ بِأحَدٍ، قَالَ: إِنَّ ابْنِى هَذَا رَيْحَانَتى مِنَ الدُّنْيَا، وَإِنَّ ابْنِى هَذَا سيِّدٌ وَسَيُصْلِحُ الله بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ مِنَ المُسْلِمِينَ".
