Sahih Ibn Hibban 7069

Translation

✧ Abdullah b. Masud used to cut siwak for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from arak trees, and his legs were thin. The people laughed, so the Prophet ﷺ said: “What makes you laugh at the thinness of his legs? By the One in whose hand is my soul, they are heavier in the Balance than Mount Uhud.”
