[Machine] On the authority of some of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, they said that Anas ibn Malik said, "We entered, and perhaps he said, 'I entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Hassan and Hussein were playing on his stomach.' He said, 'My two fragrances from this Ummah.'
عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَعْنِي أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قَالَ دَخَلْنَا وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَالْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ يَتَقَلَّبَانِ عَلَى بَطْنِهِ قَالَ وَيَقُولُ «رَيْحَانَتَيَّ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ»
that a man from the people of Al-'Iraq asked Ibn 'Umar about the blood of a gnat that gets on the clothes. Ibn 'Umar said "Look at this one, he asks about the blood of a gnat while they killed the son of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ! And I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Indeed Al-Hasan and Al-Husain - they are my two sweet basils in the world.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3770)
عَنْ دَمِ الْبَعُوضِ وَقَدْ قَتَلُوا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟» سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «هُمَا رَيْحَانَتَيَّ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا»
