Mukhtasar Bukhari

Narrated Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him): I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) on the pulpit and Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was by his side. The Prophet would sometimes turn towards the people and sometimes towards him, and he said: "This son of mine is a leader, and I hope that Allah will bring about reconciliation between two great groups of Muslims through him."
