أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ يَقُولُ

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ شَمِطَ مُقَدَّمُ رَأْسِهِ وَلِحْيَتُهُ وَإِذَا ادَّهَنَ وَمُشِّطْنَ لَمْ يَتَبَيَّنْ وَإِذَا شَعِثَ رَأَيْتُهُ وَكَانَ كَثِيرَ الشَّعْرِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ» فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ وَجْهُهُ مِثْلُ السَّيْفِ؟ قَالَ «لَا كَانَ مِثْلَ الشَّمْسِ وَالْقَمَرِ الْمُسْتَدِيرِ قَالَ فَرَأَيْتُ خَاتِمَهُ عِنْدَ كَتِفِهِ مِثْلَ بَيْضَةِ النَّعَامَةِ يُشْبِهُ جَسَدَهُ»

✧ “The front of the head and beard of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had become gray, but when he oiled and combed them, it did not show; only when his hair was disheveled could I see it. He had abundant hair and beard.” A man said, “Was his face like a sword?” He said, “No, it was like the sun and the moon, round.” He said, “And I saw his seal near his shoulder, like an ostrich egg, resembling his body.”
