Tirmidhi Book 49, Hadith 3772
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْأَشَجُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنِي يُوسُفُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ: سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُّ أَهْلِ بَيْتِكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ ؟ قَالَ: الْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ ، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ لِفَاطِمَةَ: ادْعِي لِيَ ابْنَيَّ ، فَيَشُمُّهُمَا وَيَضُمُّهُمَا إِلَيْهِ. قَالَ: هَذَا غَرِيبٌ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَنَسٍ.
Narrated Anas bin Malik: That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was asked: Which of the people of your house are most beloved to you? He said: Al-Hasan and Al-Husain. And he used to say to Fatimah: Call my two sons for me. And he would smell them and hug them.
