حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَائِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ ذِي لِمَّةٍ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَمْرَائَ أَحْسَنَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلی الله عليه وسلم لَهُ شَعَرٌ يَضْرِبُ مَنْکِبَيْهِ بَعِيدُ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَنْکِبَيْنِ لَمْ يَکُنْ بِالْقَصِيرِ وَلا بِالطَّوِيلِ

Baraa bin Aazib (Radiallahu Anhu) reports: "I never seen someone with long hair and red clothing more handsome than Rasullullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam). His hair reached his shoulders. The portion between his two shoulders was wide. He was neither very tall nor very short".
