Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَخْطُبُ فَجَاءَ الْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ - رضى الله عنهما - وَعَلَيْهِمَا قَمِيصَانِ أَحْمَرَانِ يَعْثُرَانِ فِيهِمَا فَنَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَطَعَ كَلاَمَهُ فَحَمَلَهُمَا ثُمَّ عَادَ إِلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ ‏‏{‏ إِنَّمَا أَمْوَالُكُمْ وَأَوْلاَدُكُمْ فِتْنَةٌ ‏}‏ رَأَيْتُ هَذَيْنِ يَعْثُرَانِ فِي قَمِيصَيْهِمَا فَلَمْ أَصْبِرْ حَتَّى قَطَعْتُ كَلاَمِي فَحَمَلْتُهُمَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-‘Aziz informed us; he said: al-Fadl ibn Musa narrated to us, from Husayn ibn Waqid, from ‘Abdullah ibn Buraydah, from his father, who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was preaching when al-Hasan and al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them both) came wearing red shirts, stumbling in them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came down, stopped speaking, and carried them. Then he returned to the pulpit and said: “Allah has spoken the truth: ‘Your wealth and your children are only a trial.’ I saw these two stumbling in their shirts, and I could not restrain myself; I stopped speaking and carried them.”
