Jami at-Tirmidhi 3819 (Book 49, Hadith 219) #29481
Beloved Family Members of the Prophet (PBUH)

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) was asked who his most beloved family member was and he answered that it was Fatimah bint Muhammad, followed by Usamah bin Zaid, and then Ali bin Abi Talib.

Narrated Usamah bin Zaid: "I was sitting with the Prophet when 'Ali and Al-'Abbas came seeking permission to enter. They said: 'O Usamah, seek permission for us from the Messenger of Allah '. So I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, 'Ali and Al-'Abbas seek permission to enter'. He said: 'Do you know what has brought them?' I said: 'No I do not know'. So the Prophet said: 'But I know, grant them permission'. So they entered and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we have come to you, to ask you which of your family is most beloved to you'. He said: 'Fatimah bint Muhammad'. So they said: 'We did not come to ask you about (immediate) family'. He said: 'The most beloved of my family to me is the one whom Allah favored and I favored, Usamah bin Zaid'. They said: 'Then who?' He said: 'Then 'Ali bin Abi Talib'. Al-'Abbas said: 'O Messenger of Allah, you have made your uncle the last of them'. He said: 'Indeed, 'Ali has preceded you in emigration'."

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the beloved family members of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. It is narrated by Usamah bin Zaid that when Ali and Al-'Abbas came to seek permission to enter the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, they asked him who his most beloved family member was. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied that it was Fatimah bint Muhammad followed by Usamah bin Zaid and then Ali bin Abi Talib. Al-'Abbas said that this made his uncle last in line but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied that indeed 'Ali had preceded him in emigration. This hadith teaches us about how much love and respect we should have for our families as well as how important emigrating for a good cause is in Islam. We should also remember to be humble like Al-'Abbas even if we feel slighted or overlooked at times because humility is a great virtue in Islam.
