وَمِنْ مَنَاقِبِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَخْبَارِهِ

[Machine] Muawiyah said to one of his companions, "Let me confide in you." When they sat together on his bed, he said, "O Ibn Abbas, may Allah reward you for your goodness towards Hasan bin Ali." Ibn Abbas asked, "Has he passed away?" Muawiyah replied, "Yes." Ibn Abbas said, "May Allah have mercy on him and be pleased with him, and join him with his righteous predecessors. By Allah, O Muawiyah, your grave will not be closed, your sustenance will not be consumed, and you will not live forever after him. We certainly experienced the greatest loss when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away, and Allah did not forsake us after him."  

مُعَاوِيَةُ لِبَعْضِ جُلَسَائِهِ لَيَغْتَمَّنَّ فَلَمَّا جَلَسَ مَعَهُ عَلَى فِرَاشِهِ قَالَ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ آجَرَكَ اللهُ فِي الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ فَقَالَ أَمَاتَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «رَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَرِضْوَانُهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَلْحَقَهُ بِصَالِحِ سَلَفِهِ أَمَا وَاللهِ يَا مُعَاوِيَةُ لَا يَسُدُّ حُفْرَتَكَ وَلَا تَأْكُلُ رِزْقَهُ وَلَا تُخَلَّدُ بَعْدَهُ وَلَقَدْ رُزِئْنَا بِأَعْظَمَ فَقْدًا مِنْهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَا خَذَلَنَا اللهُ بَعْدَهُ»
