حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا مُجَمِّعُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عِمْرَانَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ وَالْمَسْعُودِيُّ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ بِالْقَصِيرِ وَلَا بِالطَّوِيلِ، ضَخْمَ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ، شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ، ضَخْمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ، مُشْرَبًا وَجْهُهُ حُمْرَةً، طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ، إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤًا كَأَنَّمَا يَتَقَلَّعُ مِنْ صَخْرٍ، لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ ﷺ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ was neither short nor tall. He had a large head and beard, thick palms and feet, large joints, and a reddish complexion. He had a long line of hair from his chest to his navel. When he walked, he leaned forward as if descending from a rock. I never saw anyone like him before or after him ﷺ.
