حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ، قَالَ:
" كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ بِالْقَصِيرِ وَلَا بِالطَّوِيلِ، ضَخْمَ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ، شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ، ضَخْمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ، مُشْرَبٌ وَجْهُهُ حُمْرَةً، طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ، إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّى تَكَفِّيًا، كَأَنَّمَا يَنْحَطُّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ، لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ

When he walked, he leaned forward as if descending a slope. I have not seen before him or after him anyone like him."

سئل الدارقطني عنه فذكر الاختلاف فيه قال والصواب قول من قال عن نافع بن جبير عن علي ولم يذكر فيه جبيرا والله أعلم فإن بعضهم ذكره عن نافع عن أبيه عن علي وبعضهم يقول عن نافع عن أبيه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم
machine translationAl-Dāraquṭnī was asked about him, and he mentioned the disagreement concerning it. He said: The correct view is that of those who said, "from Nāfiʿ b. Jubayr, from ʿAlī," without mentioning Jubayr in it, and God knows best. For some of them mentioned it from Nāfiʿ, from his father, from ʿAlī, and some of them say: from Nāfiʿ, from his father, from the Prophet ﷺ.
