حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَرْطَاةَ عَنْ سِمَاکِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ کَانَ فِي سَاقَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلی الله عليه وسلم حُمُوشَةٌ وَکَانَ لا يَضْحَکُ إِلا تَبَسُّمًا فَکُنْتُ إِذَا نَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ قُلْتُ أَکْحَلُ الْعَيْنَيْنِ وَلَيْسَ بِأَکْحَلَ
شمائل المحمدية / شمائل ترمزی · Hadith 214
Jaabir ibn Samurah radiyallahu anhu says, “The calf of the leg of Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam was slightly thin. His laugh was only that of a smile. Whenever I visited Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam, I thought he used kuhl on his eyes. Whereas he had not at that time used kuhl.”
