"I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the Minbar, and Al-Hasan was with him. He would turn to the people sometimes and turn to him (Al-Hasan) sometimes, and he said: 'This son of mine is a leader (Sayyid) and Allah may make peace between two large groups of Muslims through him.'"

bukhari:3746Ṣadaqah > Ibn ʿUyaynah > Abū Mūsá > al-Ḥasan > Abū Bakrah

I heard the Prophet ﷺ talking at the pulpit while Al-Hasan was sitting beside him, and he (i.e. the Prophet ) was once looking at the people and at another time Al-Hasan, and saying, "This son of mine is a Saiyid (i.e. chief) and perhaps Allah will bring about an agreement between two sects of the Muslims through him."

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ وَالْحَسَنُ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى النَّاسِ مَرَّةً وَإِلَيْهِ مَرَّةً وَيَقُولُ ابْنِي هَذَا سَيِّدٌ وَلَعَلَّ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُصْلِحَ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ

"I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the Minbar, and Al-Hasan was with him. He would turn to the people sometimes and turn to him (Al-Hasan) sometimes, and he said: 'This son of mine is a leader (Sayyid) and Allah may make peace between two large groups of Muslims through him.'"

hakim:4809Abū Ḥātim al-Rāzī > Muḥammad b. ʿAbdullāh al-Anṣārī > Ashʿath b. ʿAbd al-Malik > al-Ḥasan > Abū Bakrah

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to al-Hasan ibn Ali. This son of mine is a Sayyid (chief), and I hope Allah may reconcile two parties of my community by means of him. Hammad's version has: And perhaps Allah may reconcile two large parties of Muslims by means of him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4662)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ «إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا سَيِّدٌ وَلَعَلَّ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُصْلِحَ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ عَظِيمَتَيْنِ»

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah, blessings be upon him, on the pulpit and Al-Hasan ibn Ali was by his side, looking at the Messenger of Allah, blessings be upon him, with a glance. The Messenger of Allah, blessings be upon him, looked at him with a glance and said, "Verily, my son here is a master, and perhaps Allah will reconcile through him between two groups of Muslims."
