Chapter: The Laughing Of Rasoolullah

باب ما جاء في ضحك رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم

Arabic Text

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ، قَالَ‏:‏ أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَرْطَاةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ‏:‏ كَانَ فِي سَاقَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، حُمُوشَةٌ، وَكَانَ لا يَضْحَكُ إِلا تَبَسُّمًا، فَكُنْتُ إِذَا نَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ، قُلْتُ‏:‏ أَكْحَلُ الْعَيْنَيْنِ، وَلَيْسَ بِأَكْحَلَ‏.‏‏.‏

English Translation

Jabir ibn Samura said (may Allah be well pleased with him): "There was a slenderness in the legs of Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace), and his laugh always took the form of a joyful smile, so when I looked at him, I said: 'His eyes are blackened , though and he is not black-eyed'!”
