Al-Hasan used to say that his fall from the heaven on the earth is dearer to him than uttering: The matter is in my hand.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 42, Hadith 22
← Previous Hadith “Can lead (any) into temptation concerning Allah, except such as are (themselves) going to the blazing fire.” He said: Except the one whom Allah destined that he should go to Hell.

Sunan Abi Dawud Book 42, Hadith 21 Next Hadith → Al-Hasan came to us. The jurists of Mecca told me that I should speak to him that some day he should hold a meeting for them and preach to them. He said: Yes. So they gathered and he addressed them. I did not see anyone on orator greater than him. A man said: Abu Sa’id, who created Satan? He replied: Glory be to Allah! Is there any creator other than Allah? Allah created Satan, and he created good and created evil. The man said: May Allah ruin them! How do they lie to this old man.
