Hadith of Abu Bakrah Nufay' bin al-Harith bin Kaladah (RA)
حديث أبي بكرة نفيع بن الحارث بن كلدة
Hadith 830:143
'Affan narrated to us, Mubarak bin Fudalah narrated to us, from al-Hasan, Abu Bakrah informed me that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was praying. When he prostrated, al-Hasan would jump onto his back and his neck. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would lift him up gently so that he would not fall. He said: He did that more than once. When he finished his prayer, they said: "O Messenger of Allah, we saw you do something with al-Hasan that we have not seen you do before." He said: "He is my sweet basil of the world, and this son of mine is a leader, and perhaps Allah will reconcile through him between two groups of the Muslims."
حدثنا عفان، حدثنا مبارك بن فضالة، عن الحسن، أخبرني أبو بكرة، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يصلي، فإذا سجد وثب الحسن على ظهره، وعلى عنقه، فيرفع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم رفعا رفيقا لئلا يصرع ، قال: فعل ذلك غير مرة، فلما قضى صلاته، قالوا: يا رسول الله، رأيناك صنعت بالحسن شيئا ما رأيناك صنعته، قال: " إنه ريحانتي من الدنيا، وإن ابني هذا سيد، وعسى الله أن يصلح به بين فئتين من المسلمين "
