3643. As-Sā'ib bin Yazīd said: "My maternal aunt took me to the
Prophet ﷺ, and said: 'O Messenger of Allāh! Indeed my nephew is in pain.' So he wiped over my head and supplicated for blessings for me. And he performed Wudū' and I drank from the water of his Wudū'. Then I stood behind his back, and I looked at the seal between his two shoulder blades, and it resembled the egg of a partridge." (Saḥīḥ)

Commentary
Different Companions have described the 'Seal of Prophethood' differently, and everyone has given his own description according to his own understanding and views. Some described it like an egg of a partridge, others said it was like the egg of the pigeon, and still some others say that it was like "Ziril-Hajalah" meaning the button of a canopy.
