" عَنْ عليٍّ قال: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَبْيَضَ مُشْربا بَيَاضُه حُمْرَةً، وَكَانَ أَسْوَدَ الْحَدَقَة، أَهْدَبَ الأَشْفَارِ لاَ قَصِيرَ وَلاَ طَوِيلَ، وَهُوَ إِلَى الطُّولِ أَقْرَبُ، صَدْرُهِ مَسْرُبَةٌ، شَثْنَ الْكَفِّ وَالْقَدَمِ، كَأَنَّ عَرَقَهُ الُّلؤْلُؤُ، إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ كأَنَّمَا يمْشِى فِى صَعَدٍ، لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلاَ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ ".

"From Ali, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was white, tinged with redness, with black pupils and long eyelashes. He was neither short nor tall, though he was closer to tall. His chest had a fine line of hair, and his palms and feet were thick. His sweat was like pearls. When he walked, he leaned forward as if descending a slope. I have never seen anyone like him before or after."
