Chapter: What has been reported concerning the walking of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
Walking with humility, not arrogance
Tirmidhi's Shama'il 124 — Walking with humility, not arrogance
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ الْمَسْعُودِيِّ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ: «كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤًا كَأَنَّمَا يَنْحَطُّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ»
Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) walked, he would lean forward, as if descending from a high place towards a slope.
