أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو تُمَيْلَةَ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
بَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَخْطُبُ إِذْ أَقْبَلَ حَسَنٌ وَحُسَيْنٌ وَعَلَيْهِمَا قَمِيصَانِ أَحْمَرَانِ يَمْشِيَانِ وَيَعْثُرَانِ فَنَزَلَ فَحَمَلَهُمَا وَقَالَ صَدَقَ اللهُ {إِنَّمَا أَمْوَالُكُمْ وَأَوْلَادُكُمْ فِتْنَةٌ} [التغابن 15] إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ هَذَيْنِ يَمْشِيَانِ وَيَعْثُرَانِ فَلَمْ أَصْبِرْ حَتَّى نَزَلْتُ فَحَمَلْتُهُمَا

✧ While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was on the pulpit delivering the sermon, Hasan and Husayn came forward wearing two red shirts, walking and stumbling. He descended and carried them, then said, “Allah has spoken the truth: ‘Your wealth and your children are only a trial’ [al-Taghabun 15]. I saw these two walking and stumbling, and I could not bear it until I descended and carried them.”
