Hadith Number: 5791
5791 - وعنه، كان إذا وصف النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - قال: لم يكن بالطويل الممغط، ولا بالقصير المتردد، وكان ربعة من القوم، ولم يكن بالجعد القطط ولا بالسبط، كان جعدا رجلا، ولم يكن بالمطهم ولا بالمكلثم، وكان في الوجه تدوير، ابيض مشرب، ادعج العينين، اهدب الاشفار، جليل المشاش والكتد، اجرد، ذو مسربة، شثن الكفين والقدمين، إذا مشى يتقلع كانما يمشي في صبب، وإذا التفت التفت معا، بين كتفيه خاتم النبوة، وهو خاتم النبيين، اجود الناس صدرا، واصدق الناس لهجة، والينهم عريكة، واكرمهم عشيرة، من رآه بديهة هابه، ومن خالطه معرفة احبه، يقول ناعته: لم ار قبله ولا بعده مثله - صلى الله عليه وسلم. رواه الترمذي.
When he described the Prophet he said:He was neither very tall nor excessively short, but was a man of medium size, he had neither very curly nor flowing hair but a mixture of two, he was not obese, he did not have a very round face, but it was so to some extent, he was reddish-white, he had wide black eyes and long eyelashes, he had protruding joints and shoulder-blades, he was not hairy but had some hair on his chest, the palms of his hands and his feet were calloused, when he walked he raised his feet as though he were walking on a slope, when he turned round he turned completely, between his shoulders was the seal of prophecy and he was the seal of the prophets, he had a finer chest than anyone else, was truer in utterance than anyone else, had the gentlest nature and the noblest tribe. Those who saw him suddenly stood in awe of him and those who shared his acquaintanceship loved him. Those who described him said they had never seen anyone like him before or since. Tirmidhi transmitted it.
