Ya’la bin Murrah narrates that we went out with the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ). We were invited to a meal, and on the way, Sayyiduna Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) was playing. The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) hurried forward and stretched out his hands. Sometimes he ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) would pass from this side and sometimes from that side, making him (Husayn) laugh, until he ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) caught him. He ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) placed one hand under his chin and the other on his head, embraced him, and kissed him. Then the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said:“Husayn is from me and I am from Husayn. May Allah love the one who loves Hasan and Husayn. They are two leaders among the leaders of the nations.”
