"O Allāh, I love him, so love him. Meaning al-Ḥasan ibn ʿAlī." It was recorded by al-Bukhārī (3749), Muslim (7/130), Aḥmad (4/283-284), as well as al-Ṭayālisī (732) and al-Ṭabarānī in "al-Muʿjam al-Kabīr" (2582) from Shuʿbah who said: ʿAdī informed me, saying: I heard al-Barāʾ (raḍiya Allāhu ʿanhu) say: "I saw the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) with al-Ḥasan ibn ʿAlī on his shoulder saying: ..." and he mentioned it. Faḍīl ibn Marzūq followed him from ʿAdī ibn Thābit with it. It was also recorded by al-Ṭabarānī (258) through the route of Abū Nuʿaym from him. Abū Usāmah differed, saying: from Faḍīl ibn Marzūq with it, except that he said: "The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) saw al-Ḥasan and al-Ḥusayn and said: O Allāh, I love them, so love them." Al-Ḥusayn was mentioned in it, which is anomalous due to its contradiction with the narration of Abū Nuʿaym from him, and with the narration of Shuʿbah from ʿAdī. Ashʿath ibn Sawwār followed him from ʿAdī... with it. It was recorded by al-Ṭabarānī (2584). However, it seems that this anomalous wording in the ḥadīth of al-Barāʾ is preserved from the ḥadīth of others among the Companions: 1 - from ʿAṭāʾ that a man informed him that he saw the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) embracing al-Ḥasan and al-Ḥusayn, saying: "O Allāh, I love them, so love them."
" اللهم إني أحبه، فأحبه. يعني الحسن بن علي ". أخرجه البخاري (٣٧٤٩) ومسلم (٧ / ١٣٠) وأحمد (٤ / ٢٨٣ - ٢٨٤) وكذا الطيالسي (٧٣٢) والطبراني في " المعجم الكبير " (٢٥٨٢) عن شعبة قال: أخبرني عدي قال: سمعت البراء ﵁ قال: " رأيت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم والحسن بن علي على عاتقه يقول: ... " فذكره. وتابعه فضيل بن مرزوق عن عدي بن ثابت به. أخرجه الطبراني أيضا (٢٥٨) من طريق أبي نعيم عنه. وخالفه أبو أسامة فقال: عن فضيل بن مرزوق به، إلا أنه قال: " أن رسول الله ﷺ أبصر حسنا وحسينا فقال: اللهم إني أحبهما فأحبهما ". فذكر حسينا فيه، وهو شاذ لمخالفته لرواية أبي نعيم عنه، ولرواية شعبة عن عدي. وتابعه أشعث بن سوار عن عدي.. به. أخرجه الطبراني (٢٥٨٤) . لكن يبدو أن هذا اللفظ الشاذ في حديث البراء محفوظ من حديث غيره من الأصحاب: ١ - عن عطاء أن رجلا أخبره أنه رأى النبي ﷺ يضم إليه حسنا وحسينا يقول: " اللهم إني أحبهما، فأحبهما ".
