عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضَخْمَ الرَّأْسِ عَظِيمَ الْعَيْنَيْنِ هَدِبَ الْأَشْفَارِ مُشْرَبَ الْعَيْنِ بِحُمْرَةٍ كَثَّ اللِّحْيَةِ أَزْهَرَ اللَّوْنِ إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ كَأَنَّمَا يَمْشِي فِي صَعَدٍ وَإِذَا الْتَفَتَ الْتَفَتَ جَمِيعًا شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ
Muhammad bin Ali narrates from his father, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a large blessed head, his eyes were very wide, his eyelashes were long, and there were reddish streaks in his eyes. His beard was thick, his complexion was very radiant, and when he walked, he would lean slightly forward, as if descending from a height. Whenever he turned towards something, he would turn completely. His palms and feet were full and fleshy.
