Ash-Shama'il Al-Muhammadiyah

Qatada said: “I said to Anas: ‘How was the hair of Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace)?' He replied: 'It was neither crisply curled nor lank. His hair used to reach the lobes of his ears'.”

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ‏:‏ قُلْتُ لأَنَسٍ‏:‏ كَيْفَ كَانَ شَعَرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏؟‏ قَالَ‏:‏ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِالْجَعْدِ، وَلا بِالسَّبْطِ، كَانَ يَبْلُغُ شَعَرُهُ شَحْمَةَ أُذُنَيْهِ‏.‏
