[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ came out while holding one of his grandchildren and said, "By Allah, you are ignorant, stingy, and cowardly. Indeed, you are the fragrance of Allah. Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, on the authority of Ali bin Hamshath Al-Adl, on the authority of Muhammad bin Ali bin Buttha, on the authority of Affan, on the authority of Wuhaib, on the authority of Abdullah bin Uthman bin Khuthaym, on the authority of Sa'id bin Abi Rashid, on the authority of Ya'la bin Munabbih Ath-Thaqafi, who said, "Al-Hasan and Al-Husayn came running to the Messenger of Allah, and he embraced them and said, 'Indeed, children are stingy, cowardly, and cause sadness.'"
