حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الشَّعْثَاءِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الْأَحْمَرُ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ الْمَكِّيِّ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ قَالَ
سُئِلَ عَلِيٌّ عَنْ صِفَةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: لَا قَصِيرٌ وَلَا طَوِيلٌ، مُشْرَبٌ لَوْنُهُ حُمْرَةً، حَسَنُ الشَّعَرِ رَجِلَهُ، ضَخْمُ الْكَرَادِيسِ، شَثْنُ الْكَفَّيْنِ [وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ]، ضَخْمُ الْهَامَةِ، طَوِيلُ الْمَسْرُبَةِ، إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ، كَأَنَّمَا يَنْحَدِرُ مِنْ صَبَبٍ، لَمْ أَرَ مِثْلَهُ قَبْلَهُ، وَلَا بَعْدَهُ ﷺ

✧ 'Ali was asked about the description of the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: He was neither short nor tall, his complexion had a reddish tinge, his hair was beautiful and slightly curly, he had large joints, rough palms [and feet], a large head, and a long line of hair from chest to navel. When he walked, he leaned forward as if descending a slope. I have not seen anyone like him before or after ﷺ.
