وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ ، يَقُولُ : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَدْ شَمِطَ مُقَدَّمُ رَأْسِهِ وَلِحْيَتِهِ ، وَكَانَ إِذَا ادَّهَنَ لَمْ يَتَبَيَّنْ ، وَإِذَا شَعِثَ رَأْسُهُ تَبَيَّنَ ، وَكَانَ كَثِيرَ شَعْرِ اللِّحْيَةِ ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ : وَجْهُهُ مِثْلُ السَّيْفِ ، قَالَ : لَا ، بَلْ كَانَ مِثْلَ الشَّمْسِ وَالْقَمَرِ ، وَكَانَ مُسْتَدِيرًا ، وَرَأَيْتُ الْخَاتَمَ عِنْدَ كَتِفِهِ ، مِثْلَ بَيْضَةِ الْحَمَامَةِ ، يُشْبِهُ جَسَدَهُ " .
Jabir bin ahadeeth reported that there had appeared some whiteness on the front part of the head and beard of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) . When he applied oil, it did not become visible, but when he did not (apply) oil, it became apparent. And he had a thick beard. A person said: His face was as (bright) as the sword. Thereupon he (Jabir) said: No, it was round and like the sun and the moon. And I saw the seal near his shoulder of the size of a pigeon's egg and its color was the same as that of his body.
