United Together in the Aakhirah

In Usdul Ghaabah the following incident regarding upbringing is narrated: Once, Hazrat Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) went to the house of Hazrat Sayyidah Faatimah (Radhiyallahu anha). At that time, Hazrat Ali (Radhiyallahu anhu) was asleep. Hazrat Husain (Radhiyallahu anhu) asked for something to drink. So, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) milked the goat that they had.

Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) had not yet given Husain (Radhiyallahu anhu) some of the milk when Hazrat Hasan (Radhiyallahu anhu) came there. Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) moved him away. Hazrat Faatimah enquired, “Ya Rasulallah! Do you love Husain more than Hasan?”

Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) replied, “No, that is not the case. The reason is that Husain asked for something to drink first.” Then he said: “On the Day of Qiyaamah, me, you, these two boys and the one who is asleep will be together in one place.”
