حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ , حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ , عَنْ عَاصِمٍ , حَدَّثَنَا مُوَرِّقٌ الْعِجْلِيُّ , حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ , قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا قَدِمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ تُلُقِّيَ بِنَا , قَالَ : فَتُلُقِّيَ بِي وَبِالْحَسَنِ أَوْ بِالْحُسَيْنِ , قَالَ : " فَحَمَلَ أَحَدَنَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ , وَالْآخَرَ خَلْفَهُ , حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ " .
´Abdullah bin Ja'far said:` "Whenever the Messenger of Allah(ﷺ) came back from a journey, he would be met by us(children). (One day) he was met by me and Hasan or Husain. He made one of us ride in front of him and the other behind him, until we came to Al-Madinah."

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊ Elders should treat children with kindness.
➋ It is permissible to welcome someone returning from a journey, but one should not display unnecessary formalities in doing so.
➌ More than one person may ride an animal, provided that the animal can easily bear the load. On a long journey or if the animal is weak, it is not appropriate for two people to ride together.
➍ Abdullah bin Ja‘far (radi Allahu anhu) and Hasan or Husayn (radi Allahu anhuma) were children. The combined weight of both of them was not equal to that of one adult, so three people riding together did not cause hardship for the animal.
