اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي فُدَيْكٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ نُعَيْمِ بْنِ الْمُجْمِرِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: مَا رَأَيْتُ حَسَنًا قَطُّ إِلاَّ فَاضَتْ عَيْنَايَ دُمُوعًا، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ يَوْمًا، فَوَجَدَنِي فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي، فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُ، فَمَا كَلَّمَنِي حَتَّى جِئْنَا سُوقَ بَنِي قَيْنُقَاعٍ، فَطَافَ فِيهِ وَنَظَرَ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ، حَتَّى جِئْنَا الْمَسْجِدَ، فَجَلَسَ فَاحْتَبَى ثُمَّ قَالَ: ”أَيْنَ لَكَاعٌ؟ ادْعُ لِي لَكَاعًا“، فَجَاءَ حَسَنٌ يَشْتَدُّ فَوَقَعَ فِي حِجْرِهِ، ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي لِحْيَتِهِ، ثُمَّ جَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَفْتَحُ فَاهُ فَيُدْخِلُ فَاهُ فِي فِيهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ”اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُحِبُّهُ، فَأَحْبِبْهُ، وَأَحِبَّ مَنْ يُحِبُّهُ.“
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: Whenever I see Sayyiduna Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him), tears flow from my eyes. And the reason for this is that one day the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came out of the house and saw me in the mosque, and he took my hand and I walked with him. The Prophet (peace be upon him) did not speak to me until we reached the market of Banu Qaynuqa. The Prophet (peace be upon him) walked around it and observed the situation. Then he returned, and I was with him, until we came to the mosque. Then he sat down with his legs drawn up and said: "Where is the little one? Bring the little one to me." So Sayyiduna Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) came running and fell into the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) lap, then put his hand into the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) beard. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) opened his blessed mouth and put it into the mouth of Sayyiduna Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him). Then he said: "O Allah! I love him, so You love him, and love those who love him."
