Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 33968 — What Allah the Exalted gave Muhammad

Ibrahim bin Muhammad, who was from the descendants of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), said: When Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) described the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he would say: He was neither excessively tall nor very short; he was of medium height. His hair was slightly curly; it was neither very curly nor completely straight, but gently wavy. He was neither very fleshy nor round-faced, but there was a slight roundness in his face. He was fair-complexioned with a tinge of red. The black of his eyes was intensely black and his eyelashes were long. The upper and middle parts of his shoulders were strong. He had no hair on his body, except for a line of hair on his chest reaching to the navel. His palms and feet were thick. When he walked, he walked firmly, as if going down a slope. When he turned in any direction, he turned completely. Between his shoulders was the seal of prophethood, and he was the Seal of the Prophets. He was the most generous and the most courageous of people, the most truthful, the most faithful to his promises, the gentlest in temperament and the best in companionship. Whoever saw him suddenly was struck with awe, and whoever mixed with him and came to know him loved him. The one describing him says: I have not seen anyone like him before him or after him.
