قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ مَوْلَى التَّوْأَمَةِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ، قَالَ:
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَبْحَ الذِّرَاعَيْنِ، بَعِيدَ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَنْكِبَيْنِ، أَهْدَبَ الْأَشْفَارِ - أَشْفَارِ الْعَيْنِ - لَمْ يَكُنْ سَخَّابًا فِي الْأَسْوَاقِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فَاحِشًا وَلَا مُتَفَحِّشًا، كَانَ ﷺ يُقْبِلُ جَمِيعًا وَيُدْبِرُ جَمِيعًا
