حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ: " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضَلِيعَ الْفَمِ، أَشْكَلَ الْعَيْنِ، مَنْهُوسَ الْعَقِبَيْنِ " قُلْتُ لِسِمَاكٍ: مَا ضَلِيعُ الْفَمِ؟ قَالَ: " عَظِيمُ الْفَمِ ". قُلْتُ: مَا أَشْكَلُ الْعَيْنِ؟ قَالَ: " طَوِيلُ شُفْرِ الْعَيْنِ (١) ". قُلْتُ: مَا مَنْهُوسُ الْعَقِبِ؟ قَالَ: " قَلِيلُ لَحْمِ الْعَقِبِ " (٢)،
