باب ما جاء فى خلق رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلمChapter: What has been reported concerning the physical appearance of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
The Prophet’s (peace be upon him) Blessed Shoulders
Hadith 4
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ : «مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ ذِي لِمَّةٍ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ أَحْسَنَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ، لَهُ شَعْرٌ يَضْرِبُ مَنْكِبَيْهِ، بَعِيدُ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَنْكِبَيْنِ، لَمْ يَكُنْ بِالْقَصِيرِ وَلَا بِالطَّوِيلِ»
Sayyiduna Bara’ bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: I have never seen anyone more beautiful than the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), who had long hair and was dressed in a red mantle. The blessed hair of the Prophet (peace be upon him) would fall upon his blessed shoulders. There was a slight gap between his two shoulders. His stature was neither short nor very tall (rather, it was of medium height, which was very suitable).
