أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَی إِسْرَائِيلُ بْنُ مُوسَی قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا بَکْرَةَ يَقُولُ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَی الْمِنْبَرِ وَالْحَسَنُ مَعَهُ وَهُوَ يُقْبِلُ عَلَی النَّاسِ مَرَّةً وَعَلَيْهِ مَرَّةً وَيَقُولُ إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا سَيِّدٌ وَلَعَلَّ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُصْلِحَ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ عَظِيمَتَيْنِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1415
Abu Bakrah said: “I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم on the Minbar, and Al-Hasan was with him. He would turn to the people sometimes and turn to him (Al Hasan) sometimes, and he said: ‘This son of mine is a leader Sa and Allah may make peace between two large groups of Muslims through him.”
