Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was neither very tall nor very short, his complexion was neither extremely white nor very wheatish, his hair was neither very curly nor completely straight. Allah Almighty honored him with the station of Prophethood at the age of forty. He (peace be upon him) stayed in Makkah the Magnificent for ten years and in Madinah the Radiant for ten years as well. At the age of sixty, Allah Almighty caused him (peace be upon him) to pass away, and at that time, there were not even twenty white hairs in his blessed head and beard.
