Good Manners and Form (Al-Adab)
Sahih

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيٌّ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نُعْمٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ شَاهِدًا لاِبْنِ عُمَرَ وَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنْ دَمِ الْبَعُوضِ‏.‏ فَقَالَ مِمَّنْ أَنْتَ فَقَالَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ‏.‏ قَالَ انْظُرُوا إِلَى هَذَا، يَسْأَلُنِي عَنْ دَمِ الْبَعُوضِ وَقَدْ قَتَلُوا ابْنَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَسَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ هُمَا رَيْحَانَتَاىَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا ‏"‏‏.‏
I was present when a man asked Ibn `Umar about the blood of mosquitoes. Ibn `Umar said, "From where are you?" The man replied. "From Iraq." Ibn `Umar said, "Look at that! he is asking me about the blood of Mosquitoes while they (the Iraqis ) have killed the (grand) son of the Prophet. I have heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "They (Hasan and Husain) are my two sweet-smelling flowers in this world."
Narrated by Narrated Ibn Abi Na'm:

Context

This hadith recounts an incident where Ibn `Umar was questioned about a trivial matter regarding mosquitoes' blood. He used this opportunity to reflect on more significant issues, recalling the Prophet Muhammad's (ﷺ) statement about his grandsons, Hasan and Husain, being his beloved flowers. This highlights the importance of prioritizing significant matters over trivial ones.

Modern Application

In contemporary life, this principle encourages individuals to focus on what truly matters and not get bogged down by insignificant details. It serves as a reminder to prioritize meaningful relationships and values over trivial concerns.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Historical Prophetic Narratives and Prophetic Teachings because it reflects on the significance of prioritizing important matters and the love the Prophet had for his grandsons.

Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example - that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it. And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, they say, "What did Allah intend by this as an example?" He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient,
