Abdullah ibn Abbas narrated:

I entered upon the Messenger of Allah (pbuhp) while he was in the house of Aisha, sitting and his wives around him. As we were in this state, Ali ibn Abi Talib (pbuh) arrived at the door, and permission was granted for him to enter. When the Messenger of Allah (pbuhp) saw him, he said, "Welcome, O Abu al-Hasan, welcome, my brother and cousin." He extended his hand to him, shook his hand, and Ali (pbuh) kissed between the eyes of the Messenger of Allah, and the Prophet (pbuh) also kissed him and seated him to his right.

The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) asked, "How are my two sons, Hasan and Husayn?" Ali (pbuh) replied, "They have gone to the house of Umm Salama to seek you, O Messenger of Allah." As we were in this state, it was announced that Uthman, Umar, Abu Bakr, and a group of the companions of the Messenger of Allah (pbuhp) were at the door. Permission was granted for them to enter, and the wives of the Prophet dispersed. They entered, greeted, and sat down.

Then Abu Dharr and Salman approached, and permission was granted for them as well. They entered, greeted the Messenger of Allah (pbuhp), shook their hand, and kissed between their eyes. Abu Bakr and Umar made room for them, and they sat next to Ali (pbuh). The Messenger of Allah (pbuhp) said, "They sit next to those who love them and whom they love."

Then Bilal came in with Hasan and Husayn (pbut), and they entered. The Messenger of Allah (pbuhp) said to them, "Welcome, my beloved ones, and the sons of my beloved." He kissed between their eyes, and they sat in front of him. They then went to Aisha's room. The Messenger of Allah (pbuhp) said, "Love them, O Aisha, and show them genuine love, for they are the fruit of my heart and the leaders of the youth of Paradise. No one loves them except that Allah loves him, and no one hates them except that Allah hates him. Whoever loves them has loved me, and whoever loves me has loved Allah. Whoever hates them has hated me, and whoever hates me has hated Allah. It is as if I see what will befall them, and this is in the knowledge of Allah the Exalted. It is as if I see their place in Paradise and the place of those who hate them in Hellfire. By Him in Whose hand is my soul, Allah will cast their enemies and those who hate them into Hellfire on their faces."

Sharh Al-Akhbar Part 3, P:107

روى بعض الثقاة الاخيار أن الحسن والحسين ‘ دخلا يوم عيد على حجرة جدهما رسول الله × فقالا له: يا جداه اليوم يوم العيد وقد تزين أولاد العرب بألوان اللباس ولبسوا جديد الثياب وليس لنا ثوب جديد وقد توجهنا لجنابك لنأخذ عيديتنا منك ولا نريد سوى ثياب نلبسها, فتأمل النبي × إلى حالهما وبكى ولم يكن عنده في البيت ثياب تليق بهما ولا رأى أن يمنعهما فيكسر خاطرهما فتوجه إلى الإحدية وعرض الحال إلى الحضرة الصمدية وقال: إلهي إجبر قلبهما وقلب أمهما. فنزل جبرائيل من السماء في تلك الحال ومعه حلتان بيضاوان من حلل الجنة, فسر النبي × بذلك وقال لهما: يا سيدي شباب أهل الجنة هاكما أثوابكما خاطهما لكما خياط القدرة على قدر طولكما, أتتكما مخيطة من عالم الغيب, فلما رأيا الخلع بيضا قالا: يا رسول الله كيف هذا وجميع صبيان العرب لابسون ألوان الثياب, فأطرق النبي × ساعة متفكرا في أمرهما, فقال جبرائيل: يا محمد طب نفسا وقر عينا إن صانع صبغة الله عز وجل يفضي لهما هذا الامر ويفرح قلوبهما بأي لون شاءا, فأمر يا محمد بإحضار الطشت والابريق فأحضره, فقال جبرائيل: يا رسول الله أنا أصب الماء على هذه الخلع وأنت تفركهما بيدك فتصبغ بأي لون شاءا, فوضع النبي × حلة الحسن في الطشت فأخذ جبرائيل يصب الماء ثم أقبل النبي على الحسن × وقال: يا قرة عيني بأي لون تريد حلتك؟ فقال: أريدها خضراء ففركها النبي في يده في ذلك الماء فأخذت بقدرة الله لونا أخضر فائقا كالزبرجد الاخضر, فأخرجها النبي × وأعطاها الحسن × فلبسها, ثم وضع حلة الحسين × في الطشت وأخذ جبرئيل × يصب الماء, فالتفت النبي × إلى نحو الحسين × وكان له من العمر خمس سنين, وقال له: يا قرة عيني أي لون تريد حلتك, فقال الحسين ×: يا جداه أريدها تكون حمراء, ففركها النبي × بيده في ذلك الماء فصارت حمراء كالياقوت الاحمر فلبسها الحسين × فسر النبي × بذلك وتوجه الحسن والحسين إلى أمهما فرحين مسرورين فبكى جبرائيل لما شاهد تلك الحال, فقال النبي ×: يا أخي جبرائيل في مثل هذا اليوم الذي فرح فيه ولداي تبكي وتحزن فبالله عليك الا ما أخبرتني لم حزنت, فقال جبرائيل: اعلم يا رسول الله أن اختيار ابنيك على اختلاف اللون فلا بد للحسن أن يسقوه السم ويخضر لون جسده من عظم السم, ولا بد للحسين أن يقتلوه ويذبحوه ويخضب بدنه من دمه, فبكى النبي × وزاد حزنه لذلك. ^[17]

Some trustworthy and good-hearted individuals narrated that Hasan and Husayn (pbut) entered the chamber of their grandfather, the Messenger of Allah (pbuhp), on the day of Eid. They said to him, "O Grandfather, today is the day of Eid. The children of the Arabs have adorned themselves with colorful clothes and are wearing new garments. We do not have any new clothes and have come to you to receive our Eid gifts. We only desire clothes to wear."

The Prophet (pbuhp) looked at their condition and cried. He had no clothes at home that would be suitable for them, and he did not want to not to fulfill request and break their hearts. So he turned to the One and Only and presented their situation to the Almighty. He said, "O my God, please comfort their hearts and the heart of their mother."

Gabriel descended from the sky at that moment with two white robes from the garments of Paradise. The Prophet (pbuhp) was delighted and said to them, "O masters of the youth of Paradise, here are your clothes tailored for you by the tailor of divine power to fit your height. They have been sent to you from the world of the unseen."

When they saw that the robes were white, they said, "O Messenger of Allah, how is this, when all the children of the Arabs are wearing colorful clothes?" The Prophet (pbuhp) pondered over their matter for a moment. Gabriel said, "O Muhammad, do not worry or grieve. The Maker of Allah's dye will make these robes any color they wish, and it will delight their hearts."

The Prophet (pbuhp) then asked for a basin and a jug. When they were brought, Gabriel said, "O Messenger of Allah, I will pour water on these robes, and you will rub them with your hand, and they will take on any color they wish." The Prophet (pbuhp) placed Hasan's robe in the basin, and Gabriel began to pour water. The Prophet (pbuhp) then turned to Hasan and said, "O joy of my eyes, what color do you want your robe to be?" Hasan replied, "I want it to be green." The Prophet (pbuhp) rubbed the robe in his hand in that water, and by the power of Allah, it turned into a bright green like the emerald. The Prophet (pbuph) took it out and gave it to Hasan, who wore it.

Then the Prophet (pbuhp) placed Husayn's robe in the basin, and Gabriel began to pour water. The Prophet (pbuhp) turned to Husayn, who was five years old, and said, "O joy of my eyes, what color do you want your robe to be?" Husayn replied, "O Grandfather, I want it to be red." The Prophet (pbuhp) rubbed the robe in his hand in that water, and it turned into a bright red like the ruby. Husayn wore it, and the Prophet (pbuhp) was pleased. Hasan and Husayn then returned to their mother, happy and joyful.

Gabriel wept when he witnessed this situation. The Prophet (pbuhp) asked, "O my brother Gabriel, on a day when my two grandsons are happy, why do you cry and grieve? For Allah's sake, tell me why you are sad." Gabriel said, "Know, O Messenger of Allah, that your two sons' choice of different colors signifies that Hasan will be poisoned, and his body will turn green from the severity of the poison. As for Husayn, he will be killed and slaughtered, and his body will be stained with his blood."

The Prophet (pbuhp) wept and his sorrow increased because of this.

عن رسول الله | في حديث طويل: الحسن والحسين ‘ إماما أمتي بعد أبيهما وسيدا شباب أهل الجنة, وأمهما سيدة نساء العالمين, وأبوهما سيد الوصيين, ومن ولد الحسين تسعة أئمة تاسعهم القائم # من ولدي, طاعتهم طاعتي ومعصيتهم معصيتي, إلى الله أشكو المنكرين لفضلهم, والمضيعين لحرمتهم بعدي, وكفى بالله وليا وناصرا, لعترتي وأئمة أمتي ومنتقما من الجاحدين لحقهم, {وسيعلم الذين ظلموا أي منقلب ينقلبون‏}. ^[18]

The Messenger of Allah (pbuhp) said in a long narration: "Hasan and Husayn are the Imams of my Ummah after their father, and they are the masters of the youth of Paradise. Their mother is the Lady of the women of the worlds, and their father is the master of the successors. From the progeny of Husayn, there are nine Imams, the ninth of whom is the Qa'im (the Mahdi) from my descendants. Obedience to them is obedience to me, and disobedience to them is disobedience to me. To Allah, I complain about those who deny their virtue and disregard their sanctity after me. Allah is sufficient as a Protector and Helper for my progeny, the Imams of my Ummah, and an Avenger against those who deny their rights. {And those who have wronged will know to what [kind of] return they will be returned.}"

عن مدرك أبي زياد قال: كنا في حيطان ابن عباس، فجاء ابن عباس وحسن وحسين ×، فطافوا في البستان فنظروا ثم جاءوا إلى ساقيه فجلسوا على شاطئها - وساق الحديث الى ان قال - ثم قاموا، فتوضؤوا، ثم قدمت دابة الحسن ×، فأمسك له ابن عباس بالركاب وسوى عليه. ثم جيء بدابة الحسين ×، فأمسك له ابن عباس بالركاب وسوى عليه، فلما مضيا قلت: أنت أكبر منهما تمسك لهما وتسوي عليهما؟ قال: يا لكع، أتدري من هذان؟ هذان ابنا رسول الله |، أوليس هذا مما أنعم الله علي به أن امسك لهما واسوي عليهما؟^[57]

From Mudrik Abi Ziyad, he said: We were in the gardens of Ibn Abbas, and Ibn Abbas, Hasan, and Husayn (pbuh) came. They walked around the orchard, looked around, then came to the water canal and sat on its bank. -They continued with the narrative until he said:- Then they got up, performed ablution, and then Hasan's mount was brought. Ibn Abbas held the stirrup for him and helped him mount. Then Husayn's mount was brought, and Ibn Abbas held the stirrup for him and helped him mount. When they left, I said: "You are older than them, yet you hold the stirrup for them and help them mount?" He said: "O foolish one, do you know who these two are? These are the sons of the Messenger of Allah (pbuhp). Is it not a blessing from Allah upon me to hold the stirrup for them and help them mount?"

عن رسول الله | في حديث طويل: والحسن والحسين ‘ إماما أمتي بعد أبيهما وسيدا شباب أهل الجنة، وأمهما سيدة نساء العالمين، وأبوهما سيد الوصيين, ومن ولد الحسين × تسعة أئمة, تاسعهم القائم # من ولدي, طاعتهم طاعتي ومعصيتهم معصيتي, إلى الله أشكو المنكرين لفضلهم والمضيعين لحرمتهم بعدي, وكفى بالله وليا وناصرا لعترتي وأئمة أمتي, ومنتقما من الجاحدين حقهم {وسيعلم الذين ظلموا أي منقلب ينقلبون}.^[59]

From the Messenger of Allah (pbuhp) in a long hadith: "Al-Hasan and Al-Husayn (pbuh) are the Imams of my Ummah after their father and the leaders of the youth of Paradise. Their mother is the leader of the women of the worlds, and their father is the leader of the successors. From the descendants of Al-Husayn, there are nine Imams, the ninth of whom is the Mahdi from my progeny. Obedience to them is obedience to me, and disobedience to them is disobedience to me. I complain to Allah about those who deny their virtue and neglect their sanctity after me. Sufficient is Allah as a protector and supporter of my progeny and the Imams of my Ummah, and as an avenger against those who deny their rights. {And those who have wronged will come to know by what overturning they will be overturned}."
