حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ مِسْمَارٍ، هُوَ مَدَنِيٌّ ثِقَةٌ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ لَمَّا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ ‏:‏ ‏‏(‏ نَدْعُ أَبْنَاءَنَا وَأَبْنَاءَكُمْ ‏)‏ دَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَلِيًّا وَفَاطِمَةَ وَحَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا فَقَالَ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ هَؤُلاَءِ أَهْلِي ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏

‘Amir ibn Sa‘d ibn Abi Waqqas reported from his father: ‘When Allah revealed the verse, “Let us call our sons and your sons…” (Qur’an 3:61), the Messenger of Allah called ‘Ali, Fatimah, Hasan, and Husayn and said, “O Allah, these are my family.”’ Abu ‘Isa graded this hadith hasan gharib sahih and described Bukayr ibn Mismar as a trustworthy Medinan narrator.
