Someone's words, "So-and-so with the curly black hair" or someone "tall" or "short" when he intends to describe him and does not mean to slander him

بَابُ قَوْلِ الرَّجُلِ‏:‏ فُلانٌ جَعْدٌ، أَسْوَدُ، أَوْ طَوِيلٌ، قَصِيرٌ

Al-Adab Al-Mufrad
Sahih (Al-Albani)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ الأَغَرِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ‏:‏ يَنْزِلُ رَبُّنَا تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَةٍ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا، حِينَ يَبْقَى ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ الْآخَرُ، فَيَقُولُ‏:‏ مَنْ يَدْعُونِي فَأَسْتَجِيبَ لَهُ‏؟‏ مَنْ يَسْأَلُنِي فَأُعْطِيَهُ‏؟‏ مَنْ يَسْتَغْفِرُنِي فَأَغْفِرَ لَهُ‏؟‏‏.‏
Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Our Lord, the Blessed and Exalted, descends to the lowest heaven every night when a third of the night remains. He says, 'Who is calling on Me so that I can answer him? Who is asking Me for something so that I can give to him? "Who is asking Me for forgiveness so that I can forgive him?'"
