حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَنْبَارِيُّ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ الْبَرَائِ قَالَ مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ ذِي لِمَّةٍ أَحْسَنَ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَمْرَائَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ زَادَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ لَهُ شَعْرٌ يَضْرِبُ مَنْکِبَيْهِ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد کَذَا رَوَاهُ إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ قَالَ يَضْرِبُ مَنْکِبَيْهِ و قَالَ شُعْبَةُ يَبْلُغُ شَحْمَةَ أُذُنَيْهِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4183
Narrated Al-Bara: I did not see any man with locks hanging down to shoulders in red robe more beautiful than the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Muhammad bin Sulaiman added: He had hair which touched his shoulders. Abu Dawud said: Isra'il also transmitted it in a similar way from Abu Ishaq saying: " (his hair) touched his shoulders". Shubah added: (His hair) reached the lobes of his ears.
