Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him), the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated for the people of his household and mentioned Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) and others. So I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Am I also among the people of the household?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, as long as you do not stand at the door of a ruler (seeking an audience), or go to a governor to ask him for something."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Tarif except Khalid."
