Ahlul Bayt the Household of the Prophet of Allah

Hadiths About Imams Al-hassan and Al-husain (as) - Their Virtues

Imams al-Hassan and al-Husain, are the blessed sons of Imam Ali and sitna Fatimah al-Zahra, grandsons of the prophet Muhammad and the beloved mother of the believers, Khadija bint Khuwaylid. Imam Hussan was born on the 15th of Ramadhan 3 A.H/625 A.D. in Medina and was martyred through poisoning in Safar 50 A.H/670 A.D by the order of tyrant Mua'awiyah.

Imam Husain, the chief of martyrs, was born on 1/8/626 (third of Sha'aban, 4 A.H) in Medina, 6 months after his brother al-Hassan. After the birth of al-Husain, the angel Gabriel came down to the prophet to give him the new born's name: al-Husain, which translates to Shubair in Hebrew. Shubair was Haroun's second son's name. An authentic hadith states that the prophet named his grandsons after the sons of Haroun:

The Messenger of Allah said: "I named Hasan and Husain and Muhsin the names of the sons of Aaron (Haroon) who were: Shubbar, Shubair, and Mushbir."

al-Husain, his sons (except Ali Zain al-Abidin), relatives and companions were martyred on the 10th of Muharram (Ashura) [61 A.H/680 A.D] in Karbala (Iraq) by order of Yazid ibn Mua'awiyah, the tyrant ruler of the muslims.

After reading about their special virtues, you will come to realize that Ahlul Bayt are the people that every muslim should follow if he wills to follow the path of the prophet. These are the people that are truly and undoubtly loved by Allah (SWT) and reserved for them a place in paradise. These are the people that the prophet had asked us to love in every way: emotionally and practically by following their footsteps. These were the people Allah had purified and made them unimaginably better than us.

And these were the people who were mistreated, killed and mutilated by the hypocrites, so that they finally extinguish Islam from the hearts of muslims and from history and gather all the worldly wealth they can reach. When the name of any of the two grandsons of the prophet are mentioned, peace be upon him (Alayhil salam) should follow. This fact, which shows their elevated status, is supported by the sihah. This virtue applies to all the members of Ahlul Bayt, except to the prophet to whom we say: Peace be upon him and his progeny.

When he lifted his head, he would move them gently and place them beside him.

One evening, after prayers, I offered to take the two youths home, but the Prophet wished them to stay. Soon, however, a flash of lightning illuminated the sky, and they thus walked in its light until they entered their home.

Narrated Abu Huraira Ad-Dausi: Once the Prophet went out during the day. Neither did he talk to me nor I to him till he reached the market of Bani Qainuqa and then he sat in the compound of Fatima's house and asked about the small boy (his grandson Al-Hasan) but Fatima kept the boy in for a while. I thought she was either changing his clothes or giving the boy a bath. After a while the boy came out running and the Prophet embraced and kissed him and then said, 'O Allah! Love him, and love whoever loves him.'

We were under the impression that his mother had detained him in order to bathe him and dress him and garland him with a sweet garland. Not much time had passed that he (Hasan) came running until both of them embraced each other, thereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: O Allah, I love him; love him Thou and love one who loves him (Hasan).

The Prophet (s) was kissing the dust and weeping. I asked him what that soil was. The Prophet (s) said: "Gabriel has informed me that my son, this Husayn, will be murdered in Iraq. He has brought this earth for me from that land. I am weeping for the suffering that will befall my Husayn." Then the Prophet (s) handed the dust to Umm Salama and said to her: "When you see this soil turn into blood, you will know that my Husayn has been slaughtered." Umm Salama kept the soil in a bottle and kept watch over it until she saw on the day of Ashura, 10th of Muharram 61 A.H., that it turned to blood. Then she knew that Husayn bin Ali (a) had been martyred.
