حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِالطَّوِيلِ وَلاَ بِالْقَصِيرِ شَثْنَ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ ضَخْمَ الرَّأْسِ ضَخْمَ الْكَرَادِيسِ طَوِيلَ الْمَسْرُبَةِ إِذَا مَشَى تَكَفَّأَ تَكَفُّؤًا كَأَنَّمَا انْحَطَّ مِنْ صَبَبٍ لَمْ أَرَ قَبْلَهُ وَلاَ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ . حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ الْمَسْعُودِيِّ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَهُ .

Narrator: 'Ali

English translation
Narrated 'Ali: "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 (the line of hair from the chest to the navel), and whenever he walked, he leaned forward as if he was going down a decline. I have not seen anyone before him nor after him that resembled him (ﷺ)
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আলী (রাযিঃ) হতে বর্ণিত আছে, তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম না অতি লম্বা ছিলেন আর না (অতি) বেঁটে ছিলেন। তার দু হাত ও দু পা ছিল গোশতবহুল, মাথা ছিল আকারে বৃহৎ এবং হাড়ের গ্রন্থিসমূহ ছিল স্থুল ও শক্তিশালী। তার বুক হতে নাভি অবধি প্রলম্বিত ফুরফুরে পশমের একটি রেখা ছিল। চলার সময় তিনি সম্মুখের দিকে ঝুঁকে হাটতেন, যেন তিনি ঢালবিশিষ্ট জায়গা দিয়ে হেঁটে চলছেন। আমি তার পূর্বে কিংবা তার পরে আর কাউকে তার মতো দেখিনি। সহীহঃ মুখতাসার শামায়িল (৪০)। আবূ ঈসা বলেন, এ হাদীসটি হাসান সহীহ। সুফইয়ান ইবনু ওয়াকী'-তার বাবা ওয়াকী হতে, তিনি আল মাসউদী হতে এই সনদসূত্রে একই রকম রিওয়ায়াত করেছেন।
