Early life

His father was Hasan ibn Ali. His mother was Kholah bint Manzur ibn Zaban ibn Sayyar Fazari who participated in the battle of Karbala with his uncle Husayn ibn Ali.
Hasan ibn Hasan's uncle Husayn ibn Ali reportedly offered him to choose either of Husayn's two daughters Sukayna and Fatimah, to be his wife. Hasan, who was too shy to accept, consequently chose Fatimah, as she resembled his grandmother Fatimah al-Zahra.

Warrior

He was 17 or 20 years old when he entered the battlefield to support Husayn ibn Ali, killing 17 and injuring 18 of the enemy. Eventually, he succumbed to his wounds. He was martyred by the envoys of Yazid I.
