In this Hadīth, Al-Barā’ ibn ‘Āzib (may Allah be pleased with him) describes the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) in a way that indicates his beauty and handsomeness. He says that he never saw anyone whose hair reaches his earlobes and wearing a red garment more good-looking than the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). Then, he mentions something else from his description: that he was broad-shouldered and that he was neither too tall nor too short.
