Hadith Commentary:
In one narration, it is mentioned that Usamah bin Zayd (radi Allahu anhu) says that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would seat me on one thigh and al-Hasan (radi Allahu anhu) on the other, then he would embrace us both and supplicate:
“O Allah! Show mercy and kindness to both of them, for I myself show affection to them.”
(Sahih al-Bukhari, al-Adab, Hadith: 6003)
From this, the virtue of al-Hasan (radi Allahu anhu) becomes evident.
