Musnad Ahmed
lts isnad is Da'if because it is interrupted]
It was narrated from Yoosuf bin Mazin that
A man asked "Ali (رضي الله عنه), “O Ameer al-Mu"mineen, describe the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) to us”. He said: “He was not very tall, a little above average height. When he came with people he would stand out among them. He was very white, with a large head, a bright face, long eyelashes and large hands and feet. When he walked, he walked with energy, as is going downhill. It was as if the sweat on his face was pearls; I have never seen anyone like him before or since, may my father and mother be sacrificed for him.
