Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ عَنْ شَرِيكٍ عَنِ السُّدِّيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ خَيْرٍ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ دَعَا بِمَاءٍ لِيَتَوَضَّأَ فَتَمَسَّحَ بِهِ تَمَسُّحًا وَمَسَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ قَدَمَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذَا وُضُوءُ مَنْ لَمْ يُحْدِثْ ثُمَّ
قَالَ لَوْلَا أَنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَسَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ قَدَمَيْهِ رَأَيْتُ أَنَّ بُطُونَهُمَا أَحَقُّ ثُمَّ شَرِبَ فَضْلَ وَضُوئِهِ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيْنَ الَّذِينَ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَشْرَبَ قَائِمًا

English Translation
It was narrated from `Ali bin Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) that He described the Prophet ﷺ and said: He had a large head, a reddish white complexion, a large beard, large joints and large hands and feet. He had a long line of hair running from his chest to his navel and the hair on his head was thick and slightly wavy. He used to lean forward when walking as if he was walking uphill, and he was neither tall nor short, I have never seen anyone like him (ﷺ) before or since. ‘Ali bin Hakeem said in his hadeeth: ‘Ali bin Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) described the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to us. He said: He had a large head and beautiful, slightly wavy hair.
