“From Husayn ibn 'Ali, who said: I went up with 'Umar ibn al-Khattab to the pulpit, and I said to him: “Come down from my father's pulpit and go up your father's pulpit.” He said: “My father did not have a pulpit.” He had me sit beside him. When he came down, he took me to his house and said: “O my son, who taught you this?” I said: “No one taught me.” He said: “O my son, if only you would come to us and visit us.” One day I came while he was alone with Mu'awiyah, and Ibn 'Umar was at the door, not given permission to enter. So I went back. Then he met me later and said to me: “O my son, I did not see you come to us?” I said: “You came while you were alone with Mu'awiyah, and I saw Ibn 'Umar turn back, so I turned back.” He said: “You have more right to permission than 'Abd Allah ibn 'Umar. It is only Allah who made grow on our heads what you see, then you—” and he placed his hand on his head.”
