3774. Buraidah said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was delivering a Khuṭbah to us when Al-Hasan and Al-Husain [peace be upon them] came, wearing red shirts, walking and falling down. So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ descended from the Minbar and carried them, and placed them in front of him. Then he said: 'Allāh spoke the Truth: Indeed, your wealth and your children are a trial.'[1] I looked at these two
children walking and falling down, and I could not bear patiently anymore until I interrupted my talk and picked them up.” (Hasan)
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb, we only know of it as a narration of Al-Ḥusain bin Wāqid.

Commentary
The condition of both the children was a distraction for the Prophet ﷺ and for the Companions too. It was difficult for the Prophet ﷺ to speak, and difficult for the Companions to listen. So to end the situation the Prophet ﷺ picked up the children and placed them in front of him.
