What had the Prophet Muhammad (saw) said about Al-Hasan (peace be upon him) while he was sitting beside him?
 Narrated Abu Bakra:                     I heard the Prophet talking at the pulpit while Al-Hasan was sitting beside him, and he (i.e. the Prophet ) was once looking at the people and at another time Al-Hasan, and saying, "This son of mine is a Saiyid (i.e. chief) and perhaps Allah will bring about an agreement between two sects of the Muslims through him."
