The Prophet (s) met `Ali, Fatima, al-Hasan, and al-Husayn (as), and all of them were saying, “I am the most beloved to the Messenger of Allah (s).” So, he (s) took Fatima to his stomach, `Ali to his back, al-Hasan to his right, and al-Husayn to his left. Then, he (s) said: You are from me, and I am from you.

أتى النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله) علي وفاطمة والحسن والحسين (عليهم السلام) كلهم يقول: أنا أحب إلى رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله). فأخذ (صلى الله عليه وآله) فاطمة مما يلي بطنه، وعليا مما يلي ظهره، والحسن عن يمينه، والحسين عن يساره، ثم قال (صلى الله عليه وآله): أنتم مني وأنا منكم (1).
