حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَيْسَ بِالطَّوِيلِ الْبَائِنِ وَلاَ بِالْقَصِيرِ، وَلاَ بِالأَبْيَضِ الأَمْهَقِ، وَلَيْسَ بِالآدَمِ وَلَيْسَ بِالْجَعْدِ الْقَطَطِ وَلاَ بِالسَّبْطِ، بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى رَأْسِ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، فَأَقَامَ بِمَكَّةَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ، وَبِالْمَدِينَةِ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ، فَتَوَفَّاهُ اللَّهُ، وَلَيْسَ فِي رَأْسِهِ وَلِحْيَتِهِ عِشْرُونَ شَعْرَةً بَيْضَاءَ.

Narrator: Anas

English translation
Narrated Anas: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was neither very tall nor short, neither absolutely white nor deep brown. His hair was neither curly nor lank. Allah sent him (as an Apostle) when he was forty years old. Afterwards he resided in Mecca for ten years and in Medina for ten more years. When Allah took him unto Him, there were scarcely twenty white hairs in his head and beard
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আনাস ইবনু মালিক (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম অতিরিক্ত লম্বাও ছিলেন না এবং বেঁটেও ছিলেন না। ধবধবে সাদাও ছিলেন না, আবার তামাটে রং এরও ছিলেন না। কেশগুচ্ছ একেবারে কুঞ্চিত ছিল না, পুরোপুরি সোজাও ছিল না। চল্লিশ বছর বয়সে তিনি নবুওয়্যাত পান। তাঁর নবুওয়্যাত সময়ের প্রথম দশ বছর মক্কা্য় এবং পরের দশ বছর মদিনা্য় কাটান। তাঁর মৃত্যুকালে মাথা ও দাড়িতে বিশটি চুলও সাদা ছিল না। (৩৫৪৭) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৩২৮৪, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
