It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) looked towards Sayyiduna Hasan, Sayyiduna Husayn, and Sayyidah Fatimah and said: Whoever opposes you, I am his opponent, and whoever makes peace with you, I will also make peace with him.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I said: O Messenger of Allah! When the Quraysh meet each other, they meet with cheerful faces, but when they meet us, they meet with indifference and frowning faces. Upon hearing this, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) became extremely angry and said: By Him in Whose hand is my soul, faith cannot settle in the heart of any person until he holds sincere love for you for the sake of Allah and His Messenger’s pleasure.

(Second Chain) Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When we go out, we see the Quraysh talking among themselves, but when they see us, they become silent. Upon hearing this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) became so angry that sweat began to flow from between his eyes. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: By Allah! Faith cannot enter a man's heart until he loves you people for the sake of Allah and out of regard for my kinship with you.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was a servant bound by the command of Allah Almighty. By Allah! Whatever message was given to him from Allah, he (peace and blessings be upon him) conveyed it exactly as it was, and apart from three things, he did not give us any special command separate from the general Ummah: He (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to perform complete ablution, not to eat charity, and not to mate donkeys with mares. Musa bin Salim says that when I met Abdur Rahman bin Hasan, I said to him: Abdullah bin Ubaidullah bin Abbas narrated to me in this way, so he said that there were few horses among Banu Hashim and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wanted their number to increase, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade them from this act.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jubair bin Mut’im (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) distributed the share of Khaybar among Banu Hashim and Banu Muttalib, I (Jubair) and Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) went to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! These are Banu Hashim, their excellence cannot be denied, due to the status they have with you, which Allah Almighty has mentioned, but please consider that these, our brothers Banu Muttalib, you have given to them and left us out, while we and Banu Muttalib are at the same position with you (i.e., our degree of kinship with you is the same as theirs). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: These people have not separated from me in the time of ignorance nor in Islam; Banu Hashim and Banu Muttalib are one and the same. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) interlaced his fingers.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jubair bin Mut’im (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (gave something to the Banu Abd Manaf and) said: O Banu Abd Manaf! This is the best gift, and O Banu Abdul Muttalib! If you are granted authority and power, then do not prevent anyone at any hour of the day or night from performing Tawaf of the House of Allah (the Ka’bah).
