وَعَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ مَازِنٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ عَلِيًّا : يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ انْعَتْ لَنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - صِفْهُ لَنَا . قَالَ : كَانَ لَيْسَ بِالذَّاهِبِ طُولًا ، فَوْقَ الرَّبْعَةِ إِذَا جَاءَ مَعَ الْقَوْمِ غَمَرَهُمْ ، أَبْيَضَ شَدِيدَ الْوَضَحِ ، ضَخْمَ الْهَامَةِ ، أَغَرَّ أَبْلَجَ أَهْدَبَ الْأَشْفَارِ ، شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ ، إِذَا مَشَى يَتَقَلَّعُ كَأَنَّمَا يَنْحَدِرُ فِي صَبَبٍ ، كَأَنَّ الْعَرَقَ فِي وَجْهِهِ اللُّؤْلُؤُ لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بِأُمِّي وَأَبِي . قُلْتُ : لَهُ عِنْدَ التِّرْمِذِيِّ حَدِيثٌ طَوِيلٌ وَفِي هَذَا زِيَادَةٌ . رَوَاهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بِإِسْنَادَيْنِ فِي أَحَدِهِمَا رَجُلٌ لَمْ يُسَمَّ وَالْآخَرُ مِنْ رِوَايَةِ يُوسُفَ بْنِ مَازِنٍ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ وَأَظُنُّهُ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ عَلِيًّا وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ .
Yusuf bin Mazin narrates: A man asked Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): "O Commander of the Believers, describe to us the appearance of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was not excessively tall; he was slightly above medium height. When he came with people, he stood out above them. He was white in colour, with a brilliant complexion; his head was large; his complexion was bright and radiant; his eyelashes were long; his palms and feet were fleshy. When he walked, he planted his feet firmly and walked briskly, as though he were descending from a height. The sweat on his face looked like pearls. I have not seen anyone like him before him or after him. May my mother and father be sacrificed for him (peace and blessings be upon him)." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Al-Tirmidhi has recorded a hadith from him, which is a long hadith, but this narration contains some additional content.
Abdullah recorded it with two chains: one of them contains a narrator who is not named, and the other is the narration of Yusuf bin Mazin from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), whereas I think that Yusuf bin Mazin did not meet Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him).
