أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَجِلاً مَرْبُوعًا عَرِيضَ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَنْكِبَيْنِ كَثَّ اللِّحْيَةِ تَعْلُوهُ حُمْرَةٌ جُمَّتُهُ إِلَى شَحْمَتَىْ أُذُنَيْهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحْسَنَ مِنْهُ
