أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ الْبَرَائِ قَالَ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجِلًا مَرْبُوعًا عَرِيضَ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَنْکِبَيْنِ کَثَّ اللِّحْيَةِ تَعْلُوهُ حُمْرَةٌ جُمَّتُهُ إِلَی شَحْمَتَيْ أُذُنَيْهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَمْرَائَ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحْسَنَ مِنْهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5247
It was narrated that Al-Bara’ said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم was a man of average height with broad shoulders, a thick beard and a reddish complexion, and his hair came down to his earlobes. I saw him in a red Hullah and I never saw anything more handsome than him.” (Sahih)
