English translation

3637. 'Ali said: "The Prophet ﷺ was not tall nor was he short, his hands and feet were thick, his head was large, he was big-boned, he had a long Masrubah,[1] and whenever he walked, he leaned forward as if he was going down an decline. I have not seen anyone before him nor after him that resembled him ﷺ." (Hasan) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Sahīh. (Another route) for similar narration with this chain.

٣٦٣٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌الْمَسْعُودِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ، عَنْ ‌نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ ، عَنْ ‌عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: «لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالطَّوِيلِ وَلَا بِالْقَصِيرِ،» شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ، ضَخْمَ الرَّأْسِ، ضَخْمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ، طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ، إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤًا، كَأَنَّمَا يَنْحَطُّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ، لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. ٣٦٣٧ (م) - حَدَّثَنَا ‌سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبِي ، عَنِ ‌الْمَسْعُودِيِّ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَهُ.
