"عَنْ علِيٍّ: كَانَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ لَيْسَ بِالقَصيرِ وَلاَ بِالطَّويل، ضَخْمَ الرَّأسِ وَالِّلحْيَةِ، شَثْنَ الكَفَّيْنِ وَالقَدَمَيْنِ، مُشْرَبًا وَجْهُهُ حُمْرَةً، طَوِيلَ المَسْرُبَةِ، ضَخْمَ الكرَادِيسِ، إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤا كَأنَّما يَنْحَطُّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ، لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلاَ بَعْدَه مِثْلَهُ".
"The Prophet ﷺ was not tall nor was he short, his hands and feet were thick, his head was large, he was big-boned, he had a long Masrubah (the line of hair from the chest to the navel), and whenever he walked, he leaned forward as if he was going down a decline. I have not seen anyone before him nor after him that resembled him ﷺ."
لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالطَّوِيلِ وَلاَ بِالْقَصِيرِ شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ ضَخْمَ الرَّأْسِ ضَخْمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤًا كَأَنَّمَا انْحَطَّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلاَ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was neither tall nor short, he had a large head, a big beard and large hands and feet. His face had a reddish colour; he had a long thin line of hair from the top of his chest to his navel; and he had large joints. When he walked, he walked energetically as is walking downhill, I never saw anyone like him before or since,
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ بِالطَّوِيلِ وَلا بِالْقَصِيرِ ضَخْمُ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ شَثْنُ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ مُشْرَبٌ وَجْهُهُ حُمْرَةًطَوِيلُ الْمَسْرُبَةِ ضَخْمُ الْكَرَادِيسِ إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤًا كَأَنَّمَا يَنْحَطُّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلا بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ ﷺ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was neither short nor tall; he had a large head, wavy hair, a big beard and a reddish complexion. There was a long line of hair running from his chest to his navel. He had large joints and large hands and feet. When he walked, he walked energetically as if walking downhill, I have never seen anyone like him before or since.
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا قَصِيرٌ وَلا طَوِيلٌ عَظِيمَ الرَّأْسِ رَجِلَهُ عَظِيمَ اللِّحْيَةِ مُشْرَبًا حُمْرَةً طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ عَظِيمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ كَأَنَّمَا يَهْبِطُ فِي صَبَبٍ لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلا بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ ﷺ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was neither short not tall; he had a large head and beard, large hands and feet, large joints, a reddish face, and a long line of hair from his chest to his navel. When he walked he walked energetically, as if lifting his feet from a rock. I have never seen anyone like him before or since, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him.
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ بِالْقَصِيرِ وَلا بِالطَّوِيلِ ضَخْمَ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ ضَخْمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ مُشْرَبًا وَجْهُهُ حُمْرَةً طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤًا كَأَنَّمَا يَتَقَلَّعُ مِنْ صَخْرٍ لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ ﷺ

شَرِيكٌ قُلْتُ لَهُ عَمَّنْ يَا أَبَا عُمَيْرٍ عَمَّنْ حَدَّثَهُ؟ قَالَ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ضَخْمَ الْهَامَةِ مُشْرَبًا حُمْرَةً شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ ضَخْمَ اللِّحْيَةِ طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ ضَخْمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ يَمْشِي فِي صَبَبٍ يَتَكَفَّأُ فِي الْمِشْيَةِ لَا قَصِيرٌ وَلَا طَوِيلٌ لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ مِثْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ ﷺ
"The Prophet ﷺ was not tall nor was he short, his hands and feet were thick, his head was large, he was big-boned, he had a long Masrubah (the line of hair from the chest to the navel), and whenever he walked, he leaned forward as if he was going down a decline. I have not seen anyone before him nor after him that resembled him ﷺ." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3637)
«لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالطَّوِيلِ وَلَا بِالْقَصِيرِ شَثْنُ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ ضَخْمُ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ مُشْرَبٌ حُمْرَةً ضَخْمُ الْكَرَادِيسِ طَوِيلُ الْمَسْرُبَةِ إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤًا كَأَنَّمَا يَمْشِي يَنْحَطُّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ لَمْ أَرْ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ ﷺ»
" عن نافع بنِ جُبَيْر قَالَ: وَصَفَ لَنَا عَلِىٌّ النَّبِىَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: لَمْ يَكُنْ بِالطَّوِيلِ وَلاَ بِالْقَصِيرِ، وَكَانَ أَبْيَضَ مُشْربًا بِحُمْرَةٍ، ضَخْمَ الهَامَةِ، عَظيمَ اللِّحْيَةِ، كَثِيرَ الشَّعرِ رَجْلَهُ، شَثْنَ الْكَفيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ، صخْمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ، طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ، إِذَا مَشَى يمْشِى يَكْفَأُ كَأَنَّمَا يَنْحَدِرُ مِنْ صَبَبٍ، لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلاَ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ ".
