فِي صِفَةِ فَمِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَعَيْنَيْهِ وَعَقِبَيْهِ .

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ الْمُثَنَّى - قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضَلِيعَ الْفَمِ، أَشْكَلَ الْعَيْنِ مَنْهُوسَ الْعَقِبَيْنِ» قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِسِمَاكٍ: مَا ضَلِيعُ الْفَمِ؟ قَالَ: «عَظِيمُ الْفَمِ»، قَالَ قُلْتُ: مَا أَشْكَلُ الْعَيْنِ؟ قَالَ: «طَوِيلُ شَقِّ الْعَيْنِ»، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَا مَنْهُوسُ الْعَقِبِ؟ قَالَ: «قَلِيلُ لَحْمِ الْعَقِبِ».

The Mouth, Eyes And Heels Of The Prophet (SAW)

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) had a broad face with reddish (wide) eyes, and lean heels. Shu'ba reported: I said to Simak: What does this dali-ul-fam mean? And he said: This means broad face. I said: What does this ashkal mean? He said: Long in the slit of the eye. I said: What is this manhus-ul-aqibain? He said: It implies little flesh at the heels.
