tirmidhi:3772Abū Saʿīd al-Ashaj > ʿUqbah b. Khālid > Yūsuf b. Ibrāhīm > Anas b. Mālik

That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked: "Which of the people of your house are most beloved to you?" He said: "Al-Hasan and Al-Husain." And he used to say to Fatimah: "Call my two sons for me so that I may smell them." And he would hug them.  

الترمذي:٣٧٧٢حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الأَشَجُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يُوسُفُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَىُّ أَهْلِ بَيْتِكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ الْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ لِفَاطِمَةَ ادْعِي لِي ابْنَىَّ فَيَشُمُّهُمَا وَيَضُمُّهُمَا إِلَيْهِ  

هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَنَسٍ
