Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 14303

وَعَنْ عَائِشَةَ : أَنَّهَا رَأَتْ رَجُلًا مَارًّا وَهِيَ فِي هَوْدَجِهَا ، فَقَالَتْ : مَا رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا أَشْبَهَ مِنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ مِنْ هَذَا ، فَقِيلَ لَهَا : صِفِي لَنَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ . فَقَالَتْ : كَانَ رَجُلًا أَبْيَضَ نَحِيفًا ، خَفِيفَ الْعَارِضَيْنِ ، أَحْنًا لَا تَسْتَمْسِكُ إِزْرَتُهُ تَسْتَرْخِي عَنْ حِقْوَيْهِ ، مَعْرُوقَ الْوَجْهِ ، غَائِرَ الْعَيْنَيْنِ ، نَاتِئَ الْجَبْهَةِ ، عَارِيَ الْأَشَاجِعِ . هَذِهِ صِفَتُهُ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ الْوَاقِدَيُّ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ . وَقَدْ تَقَدَّمَتْ أَحَادِيثُ فِي الْخِضَابِ .
It is reported about Sayyidah Aishah Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) that she was in her howdah when she saw a man passing by, and she said: I have not seen anyone who resembles Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) more than this man. It was said to her: Describe to us the appearance of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: He was a man of fair complexion, slender build and light cheeks; his waist-wrapper would not stay in place but would slip down from his sides; his face had little flesh, his eyes were sunken, his forehead was prominent, and there was little flesh on the joints of his fingers. This is his description.
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, al-Waqidi, and he is da'if (weak). Some hadiths about applying dye have already passed before this.
