حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَی بْنُ يُونُسَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ مَوْلَی غُفْرَةَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ مِنْ وَلَدِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ کَانَ عَلِيٌّ إِذَا وَصَفَ النَّبِيَّ صلی الله عليه وسلم قَالَ کَانَ إِذَا مَشَی تَقَلَّعَ کَأَنَّمَا يَنْحَطُّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ
شمائل المحمدية / شمائل ترمزی · Hadith 117
Ebrahim bin Muhammad says: "When 'Ali Radiyallahu 'Anhu described Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam, he used to say: Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam walked, he lifted his leg with vigour. He did not drag his feet on the ground like women do. When he walked, because of the speed and force of the legs, it seemed as if he was descending from a high place".
