[Machine] While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was delivering a sermon to the people, Hassan ibn Ali came to him and climbed onto his lap. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ embraced him and said, "Indeed, this son of mine is a master and indeed, Allah the Almighty may use him to reconcile between two great factions of Muslims." Both of these narrations were reported by Al-Bukhari through the route of Abu Musa Israil from Al-Hasan.  

الحاكم:٤٨١٠ – وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ هَانِئٍ ثنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ ثنا عَفَّانُ وَسُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ قَالَا ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ

بَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ إِذْ جَاءَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ فَصَعِدَ إِلَيْهِ فَضَمَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ «أَلَا إِنِ ابْنِي هَذَا سَيِّدٌ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ ﷻ لَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يُصْلِحَ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ عَظِيمَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ» أخرجهما البخاري من طريق أبي موسى إسرائيل عن الحسن

[Machine] One day, while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was giving a sermon, Al-Hasan ibn Ali came and ascended the pulpit. The Prophet ﷺ embraced him and touched his head, and said, "This is my son. Perhaps Allah will bring about reconciliation between two great factions of Muslims through him."  

أحمد:٢٠٤٩٩ – حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ قَالَ
