It is narrated from Yusuf bin Mazin that a man asked Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him: O Commander of the Faithful! Please describe to us the blessed appearance of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. He said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was not very tall; he was slightly taller than medium height. When he stood among others, he appeared prominent among them. His complexion was radiant white. His blessed head was large. His luminous face was very bright. His eyebrows were not joined together. His eyelashes were thick and long. His blessed palms and feet were full-fleshed. When he walked, he walked with strength as if descending from a height to a lower place. Sweat on his face would shine like pearls. May my parents be sacrificed for him, peace and blessings be upon him. I have not seen anyone like him, peace and blessings be upon him, before or after him.
