Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with them both) relates that whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from a journey, the children of his household would come out to receive him. Once he (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from a journey, and I was sent to him ahead of the others, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) seated me in front of him. Then one of the two sons of Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) was brought, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) seated him behind him. Then we entered Madinah, three of us on one mount.
