MOHAMMED'S (PBUH) BODY STRUCTURE:
----------------------
Anas (Radiallahu Anhu) reports: "Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam) was neither tall nor was he short (like a dwarf--He was of medium stature). In complexion, he was he was neither very white like lime, nor very dark, nor brown which results in darkness (he was illuminant, more luminous than even the full-moon on the 14th night).
The hair of Rasullullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam) was neither very straight nor very curly (but slightly wavy). When he attained the age of forty, Allah the Almighty granted him nubuwwah (prophet hood). He lived for ten years in Makkah (commentary) and in Madina for ten years. At that time there were not more than twenty white hair on his mubarak (blessed) head and beard." (This will be described in detail in the chapter on white hair of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam). (Shumail e Turmazi, Vol 1, no 1)
Hasan bin Ali (Radiallahu anhu) reported: "I inquired from my maternal uncle (Sayyiditina Fatimah Radiallahu anha's step brother) Hind bin Abi Haalah (Radiallahu anhu) about the noble features of the Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam). He had often described the noble features of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam) in detail. I felt that I should hear from him personally, some of the noble features of Raulullah (Sallallahu alalihe wasallam), so that I could make his description a proof and testimony for myself and also memorize them, and, if possible, try to emulate and adopt them. (The age of Sayyidna Hasan (Radiallahu anhu) at the time of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam)'s death was seven years. In view of his age he did not have the opportunity to realize fully the features of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam). The uncle described the noble features by saying: "He had great qualities and attributes in him, others also held him in high esteem. His mubarak face shone like the full moon. He was slightly taller than a man of middle height, but shorter than a tall person. His mubarak head was moderately large. His mubarak hair was slightly twisted. If his hair became parted naturally in the middle he left it so, otherwise he did not habitually make an effort to part his hair in the middle. (This is a more respected translation). (Shumail Tarmizi, Vol 1, no 7)
Narrated by Hazrat Ali(RZ)
"Rasool Allah(pbuh) was not too tall and not short. But he was of average height. Hair were neither straight and nor curly but a bit curly. Body was not chubby. Face was not round and heavy and cheeks were not bulky, Infect face was kinda round. Complexion was whitish and reddish. Eyes were black and Eyebrows were long. Joint bones were strong. Edge of shoulders and middle part was strong and flashy. Body was not too hairy, just a line of hair from chest to tummy. Palms and feet were flashy. He(pbuh) use to walk with strength. and it feel like coming down from some higher place. when He(pbuh) pay attention toward right or left, he(pbuh) move his whole body (not just face). There was sign of prophet hood between both shoulders. He(pbuh) is the last Prophet. Most generous of all and most truthful of all. Very kind in nature and family wise most supreme. who ever see him(pbuh), in very first look he become influenced, Who use to meet him regularly, he begin to love him more then any thing."
Hazrat Ali further narrates that "i have never seen any one like him(pbuh) and never will. May Allah's mercy and peace be upon him(pbuh)"
(Mashqat Shareef, vol 5, no 373)

COMPLEXION:
---------------
Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)'s complexion was white..but not like milk (mean not too much white), it was white and reddish.
Yazeed Al Faarisi bin Hurmuz, who was a calligrapher of the Qur-aan, once saw Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam in his dream during the time of Ibn 'Abbaas Radiyallahu 'Anhu. He related his dream to Ibn 'Abbaas. Ibn 'Abbaas said: "Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam used to say that the shaytaan cannot imitate him. That person who has seen him in a dream has really seen him'. After mentioning this he asked: 'Can you describe this person whom you have seen in your dream?'. I replied: "Yes, I can, I will describe to you a man whose body and height were of a medium stature. He had a wheat-colored complexion with a bit of whiteness in it. Eyes like those that had kuhl on them. A smiling face. Beautiful and round face. A compact beard which surrounded his mubaarak face, and spread on the fore portion of the chest....."
(Shumail e Turmazi, Vol 1, no 386) Narrated by Hazrat Abu Huraira(RZ)
"Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) was most beautiful in complexion as compare to all"
(AlTabqat ul Qubra) Narrated by Hazrat Uns(RZ)
"Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)'s complexion was glowing white" (sahi Muslim, kitab ul Fazail. no 2330)
Narrated by Hazrat Ali(AS) "Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)'s complexion was a beautiful mixture of white and red color" (Masnad Imam Humbal, no 944)

BODY'S SOFTNESS:
-----------------------
Narrated Anas : The Prophet had big hands and feet, and I have not seen anybody like him, neither before nor after him, and his palms were soft. (Bukhari, vol 3, no 870)
Sayyidina Anas (RA) narrated: I served Allah’s Messenger for ten years. He never said, “Oof” to me. And did not say about anything that I did, ‘Why did you do it?” and about that which I neglected, “Why did you neglect it?” He possessed the best of manners among people. And, I never touched any cloth, silk or anything, more soft than his hands and I never smelt musk or perfume more fragrant than his sweat. (Jamia Turmazi, Vol 1, no 2104)
Narrated by Hazrat Ali(AS) "Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)'s skin was soft and silky"
(Al WAFA by Imam Ibn e Jozi, p 409) Narrated by Hazrat Uns(RZ)
"i have never touched any silk which was more silky then Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)'s palm" (Sahi Bukhari, Kital ul Munaqib, p 3368)
Narrated by Hazrat Amina(RZ) (mother of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) "when Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was born his body was clean" (Naseem Al Riaz)
It is mentioned in books that body of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was too clear and pure that it didn't had any shadow at all.
"Body of Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) didnt contain any shadow in sun and moon because he(pbuh) was all noor" (Al Shafa by Qazi Ayaz) (Al Wafa by Ibn e Joza)
______________
SWEAT OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD (pbuh) WAS NATURALLY PERFUMED
------------------------
Though Prophet Muhammad(SAW) like using perfumes but almost all of his companions agreed that unlike others, Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) had his own fragrance which was so good that any other perfume of the world was nothing in front of it. and even he(PBUH) didn't use any perfume but his body was naturally perfumed.
Narrated by Hazrat Haleema Sadia(RZ)
"When i brought Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) to my house, there was no house of tribe bano saad (Hazrat Haleema's tribe) which wasn't perfumed"
(sibal al Hadi walrashaad)
Narrated by Hazrat Abo Talib (uncle)
"Prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) body was silky and naturally perfumed" (Al Tafseer Al Qabair by Imam Razi)
Naratted by Jabbir(RZ):
When Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) walk through any road, The person who walk after him from that road recognize by the fragrance of his (Pbuh) body or of his(pbuh) sweat that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has walked this road (mashqat shareef, vol 5, no 374)
Narrated Anas:
I have never touched silk or Dibaj (i.e. thick silk) softer than the palm of the Prophet nor have I smelt a perfume nicer than the sweat of the Prophet. (Sahi Bukhari, Vol 2, no 815)
Narrated Abu Juhaifa: Once Allah's Apostle went to Al-Batha' at noon, performed the ablution and offered' a two Rakat Zuhr prayer and a two-Rak'at 'Asr prayer while a spearheaded stick was planted before him and the passersby were passing in front of it. (After the prayer), the people got up and held the hands of the Prophet and passed them on their faces. I also took his hand and kept it on my face and noticed that it was colder than ice, and its smell was nicer than musk. (Bukhari, vol 2, no 807)
Anas b. Malik reported that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) came to the house of Umm Sulaim and slept in her bed while she was away from her house. On the other day too he slept in her bed. She came and it was said to her: It is Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) who is having siesta in your house, lying in your bed. She came and found him sweating and his sweat falling on the leather cloth spread on her bed. She opened her scent-bag and began to fill the bottles with it. Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) was startled and woke up and said: Umm Sulaim, what are you doing? She said: Allah's Messenger, we seek blessings for our children through it. Thereupon he said: You have done something right. (Sahi Muslim, Vol 2, No 1555
______
HEIGHT:
---------
Though Prophet Muhammad(SAW)'s height was normal but when ever he was among his companions (sitting, standing or walking with them) one can feel that his(pbuh)'s height is more then others...and it was a miracle.
It was narrated that Al-Bara’ said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم was a man of average height with broad shoulders, a thick beard and a reddish complexion, and his hair came down to his earlobes. I saw him in a red Hullah and I never saw anything more handsome than him.” (Sahih) (Sunan e nasai, vol 3, no 1533)

Mix Ahadees about physical features:
-----------------------------------------
Narrated Abu Ishaq: Al-Bara' was asked, "Was the face of the Prophet (as bright) as a sword?" He said, "No, but (as bright) as a moon." (Bukhari, vol 2, 806)
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Ka'b: I heard Ka'b bin Malik talking after his failure to join (the Ghazwa of) Tabuk. He said, "When I greeted Allah's Apostle whose face was glittering with happiness, for whenever Allah's Apostle was happy, his face used to glitter, as if it was a piece of the moon, and we used to recognize it
(i.e. his happiness) from his face." (Bukhari, vol 2, no 810)
Narrated Abu Huraira : The Prophet had big feet and a good-looking face and l have not seen anybody like him after him. Narrated Anas: The Prophet had big feet and hands. Narrated Anas or Jabir bin 'Abdullah The Prophet had big hands and feet and I have not seen anybody like him after him. (Bukhari, vol 3, no 871)
Al-Bara' reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) had the most handsome face amongst men and he had the best disposition and he was neither very tall nor short-statured. (Muslim, vol 3, no 1565)
Jabir b. Samura reported that there had appeared some whiteness on the front part of the head and beard of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him). When he applied oil, it did not become visible, but when he did not (apply) oil, it became apparent. And he had a thick beard. A person said: His face was as (bright) as the sword. Thereupon he (Jabir) said: No, it was round and like the sun and the moon. And I saw the seal near his shoulder of the size of a
pigeon's egg and its color was the same as that of his body. (Muslim, vol 3, no 1583)

Rasulalah's Illuminated Face :
The radiance of His face was such that His mere presence would light up a place. His radiance would eclipse the light of any lamp, even the sun. It would seem that the sun would draw from the face of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam).
Hadhrat Aisha (May Allah be well pleased with her) narrates,” The Holy Prophet’s (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) face was the most beautiful among all men and His Complexion was the most luminous.” Hadhrat Abdullah bin Umar (May Allah be well pleased with him) says, “I have never seen anybody stronger and braver; more generous and more benevolent, more pure and more radiant than the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa salaam). (Sunan Darmi, Vol 1, Pg No: 30)
Hadhrat Abdullah bin Abbas (May Allah be well pleased with them) says, “The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) had no shadow. His radiance would eclipse even the bright sun. In front of a lighted lamp, His radiance would be more powerful.” (Subul ul Huda war rashad, Vol 2, Pg No: 39/40)
The luminosity of his face would further increase on occasions of happiness and joy. As Hadhrat Ka’ab bin Malik (May Allah be well pleased with him) says,” Whenever the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) was happy, His face would become even more luminous.” (Sahih Bukhari, Vol 1)
THE SUN DRAWS FROM HIS RADIANCE
Hadhrat Abu Ubaida bin Muhammad bin ‘Ammar bin Yasir (May Allah be well pleased with him) says that he asked Hadhrat Rabee’a bint Ma’oodhz (May Allah be well pleased with her) “You please describe the person of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) for us. She replied, “If you had seen the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam), you would have understood the truth that the sun shines because of the radiance of His face.” (Zujajatul Masabeeh, Vol 5, Pg No: 25)
Hadhrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be well pleased with him) says,” I have never seen anybody as beautiful as the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam). It is as if the sun draws its light from His face and moves.”
(Jame’ Tirmidhi Vol 2, Pg No: 202, Zujajatul Masabeeh, Vol 5, Pg No: 25)
The radiance of His face would replace darkness with light and brightness as Hadhrat Anas bin Malik (May Allah be well pleased with him) says,” When the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) entered Medina, every grain of sand in Medina started shining.”
(Jame’ Tirmidhi Vol 2, Pg No: 203)
Ummul Momineen Hadhrat Aisha (May Allah be well pleased with her) says, “I was sewing something at night when the needle slipped from my hands. I searched for it but could not find it. Then the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) entered the house. The needle started shining because of the radiance of His face.”
The state of the radiance of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) on the eve of His Heavenly Journey i.e. the Me’raj has been described by the Muhaddith of Deccan Hadhrat Abdullah Shah Sahab Naqshbandi Mujaddidi Qadri (May Allah shower His mercy on him): “70000 angels were on His right and 70000 were on His left. Each angel had a torch which was lighted with the radiance of ‘Arsh. In spite of this, the luminosity of the Holy Prophet’s (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) face was a class apart. Allah SWT commanded Jibrail (Peace be upon him) thus: “O Jibrail, My Beloved’s face is covered with thousands of veils. Even then the luminosity is such, O Jibrail. Raise just 1 veil of His face.” Jibrail (Peace be upon him) did so and the hundreds of heavenly torches paled before the luminosity of the Holy Prophet’s (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) face.”
Hadhrat Jabir bin Samura (May Allah be well pleased with him) says, “I saw the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) on a moonlit night while He (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) was wearing a red striped garment. I looked at the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) and I looked at the moon. By Allah! In my opinion, the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) is more beautiful and lovelier than the moon.
When the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) graced Medina with His presence, Hadhrat Abdullah bin Salam (May Allah be well pleased with him) who was a great scholar of the Jews came along with the people to see Him. He says, “When I saw His face, I concluded that such a face cannot be of a liar.” (Jame’ Tirmidhi, Vol 2, Pg No: 75)
His Head
Anas Ibn Maalik, may Allaah be pleased with him, said: "The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had a large head." [Al-Bukhaari]
'Ali Ibn Abu Taalib, may Allaah be pleased with him, also said: "The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had a sizable head" [Al-Bayhaqi]
His Eyes
It was said to 'Ali Ibn Abu Taalib, may Allaah be pleased with him: "Describe the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, for us. He said: 'His was reddish white. He had large black eyes with long eyelashes'." [Al-Bayhaqi]
Jaabir Ibn Samurah, may Allaah be pleased with him, narrated: "Allaah's Messenger, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had reddish eyes." [Abu Daawood]
This red color was in the white part of the eyes.
Jaabir Ibn Samurah, may Allaah be pleased with him, also narrated: "Allaah's Messenger, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had reddish-black eyes."
[Muslim]
His Cheeks
Abu Hurayrah, may Allaah be pleased with him, was asked about the physical description of the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, and he said: "He was the most handsome person … broad-shouldered, with smooth cheeks."[Al-Bayhaqi]
Hind Ibn Abu Haalah, may Allaah be pleased with him, also said: "The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had smooth cheeks."
[At-Tirmithi and Ahmad]
This means that the cheeks of the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had no projections.
His Hair
Anas Ibn Maalik, may Allaah be pleased with him, said: "The hair of the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, used to hang down half way to his earlobes." [Muslim]
'Aa'ishah Bint Abu Bakr, may Allaah be pleased with her, narrated: "The hair of the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, was above the shoulders and below the earlobes." [Abu Daawood and At-Tirmithi]
This means that the hair of the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, was of medium length. It did not reach his shoulders, and it was not too short either, namely it did not reach his earlobes. When the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, delayed cutting his hair, it would grow to his shoulders, and when he cut his hair, he would cut it up to his ears, or half way down to his earlobes.
Qataadah, may Allaah be pleased with him, said: "I asked Anas Ibn Maalik, may Allaah be pleased with him: 'What was the hair of Allaah's Messenger, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, like?'Thereupon, he said: 'His hair was neither curly nor completely straight, and it hung over his shoulders and earlobes'." [Abu Daawood]
His Stature
Anas Ibn Maalik, may Allaah be pleased with him, narrated: ""Allaah's Messenger was neither very tall nor short." [Al-Bukhaari]
Thus, the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had a medium build.
His shoulders, chest and belly
Al-Baraa’ Ibn `Aazib, may Allaah be pleased with him, narrated: "Allaah's Messenger, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, was of medium height, having broad shoulders."
[Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]
Hind Ibn Abi Haalah, may Allaah be pleased with him, said: "The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had a broad and flat belly and chest and he had broad shoulders."
[At-Tirmithi]
His limbs and how he walked
'Ali Ibn Abi Taalib, may Allaah be pleased with him, said: "The Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, was neither excessively tall nor extremely short. He had thick hands and thick fingers and toes." [At-Tirmithi]
Hind Ibn Abi Haalah, may Allaah be pleased with him, said: "The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had large palms. His legs were straight and long. His other limbs were also straight. The arches on his feet could hardly touch the ground. When he walked, he walked briskly (i.e. he walked with strength of purpose), lifting each foot clearly off the ground, not like those who walk with an air of ostentation, and he walked at ease when he was not in a hurry. When he walked, he leant forward as if descending a slope."
[At-Tirmithi and Ahmad]
This means that he, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, lifted his feet when he walked; he didn't shuffle. The outside part of his feet were flat to the extent that water could not remain settled on it. The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, used to walk calmly, humbly, and steadily. While walking, he used to lift his feet quickly,
extend his pace and walk as if descending a slope.
His Smell and Perspiration
Anas, may Allaah be pleased with him, narrated: "Allaah's Messenger, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, had a very fair complexion and the drops of his perspiration shone like pearls, and when he walked he walked inclining forward, and I never touched brocade or silk and found it as soft as the palm of Allaah's Messenger, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, and I never smelt musk or ambergris whose fragrance was as good as that of Allaah's Messenger, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam."
Imam Hasan bin Ali (Radiallahu anhu) reported: "I inquired from my maternal uncle (Sayyiditina Fatimah Radiallahu anha's step brother) Hind bin Abi Haalah (Radiallahu anhu) about the noble features of Sayyidina Rasulullah (Salla lahu alayhi wa’ale hi wasallam). He had often described the noble features of Rasulullah (Salla lahu alayhi wa’ale hi wasallam) in detail. I felt that I should hear from him personally, some of the noble features of Rasulullah (Salla lahu alayhi wa’ale hi wasallam), so that I could make his description a proof and testimony for myself and also memorise them, and, if possible, try to emulate and adopt them. (The age of Sayyidina Hasan (Radiallahu anhu) at the time of Rasulullah (Salla lahu alayhi wa’ale hi wasallam)'s departure from this world was seven years. In view of his age he did not have the opportunity to realise fully the features of Rasulullah (Salla lahu alayhi wa’ale hi wasallam). The uncle described the noble features by saying: "Sayyidina Rasulullah Salla Lahu Alayhi Wa’ale Hi Wasallam had great qualities and attributes, others also held them in high esteem. The Mubarak -
Physical Looks of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him). There are so many verses in the Hadith and even in the Qur'an that prove Mohammed was a white man. This is important. Nobody on earth, unless they are nuts get upset if we say, Alexander the Great was a white man. No one gets mad if we say that Buddha was a Caucasian white man. The moment you bring up overwhelming proof that Christ or Muhammed were white, Christians get furious with you. I've not met a Muslim who has gotten angry after I have told them that Mohammed (pbuh) was a white man.
The Hadith is clear that Mohammed's face was bright as the full moon.
Why is it nowhere in history can we find a black Mohammed?
Picture on the right, Mohammed preaching, with historically inaccurate landscape and clothing (a common problem in medieval and Renaissance paintings, which usually showed fashions contemporary with the time the painting was made, rather than costumes of the era depicted). Illustration ca. 1400-1425, taken from Boccaccio's De Casibus Virorum Illustrium (early 15th-century French translation by Laurent de Premierfait); drawn by the "Master of Rohan." The manuscript is currently in the Bibliothèque Nationale de France. The same illustration in the context of its manuscript page can be seen here. According to the iconography of the time, the dove on Mohammed's shoulder indicates that he is a false prophet trying to convince his listeners that he is associated with the Holy Spirit (of which the dove is a symbol).
The former Aladdin Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada had a Middle-Eastern design theme; among its many Islamic decorations was this ceiling painting of a large figure that some employees claim represents Mohammed. The Aladdin was bought by Planet Hollywood in 2006 and at the time of this writing is being converted into the Planet Hollywood Casino. The original Middle-Eastern decorations, including this painting, are to be removed or destroyed. The second picture shows the painting's location, on the ceiling above the slot machines near the casino's main Las Vegas Boulevard entrance.
Don't you find it interesting that neither Mohammed nor Christ were black men as stupid ignorant people void of historical knowledge claim?
Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)'s complexion was white..but not like milk (mean not too much white), it was white and reddish.
Yazeed Al Faarisi bin Hurmuz, who was a calligrapher of the Qur-aan, once saw Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam in his dream during the time of Ibn 'Abbaas Radiyallahu 'Anhu. He related his dream to Ibn 'Abbaas. Ibn 'Abbaas said: "Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam used to say that the shaytaan cannot imitate him.

I replied: "Yes, I can, I will describe to you a man whose body and height were of a medium stature. He had a wheat-colored complexion with a bit of whiteness in it. Eyes like those that had kuhl on them. A smiling face. Beautiful and round face. A compact beard which surrounded his mubaarak face, and spread on the fore portion of the chest....."

The church in the town of Gothem on the Swedish Island of Gotland features this wall painting, which depicts (from left to right) the Pope, St. Christopher, baby Jesus, and Mohammed. According to this scholarly paper (pdf file), "An early example of how Muhammad was used in the early reformation comes from a wall painting in the Gothem church on Gotland (an island situated on the East coast of Sweden) from the middle of the 16th century. The painting depicts St Christopher, Jesus as a child, the Pope and Mohammad. St Christopher caries the child on his shoulder, saving it from the water in which the Pope and Muhammad perish. How do we understand this painting? The propaganda is directed towards Catholicism. The drowning, nameless pope is humiliated by being associated with Muhammad and Islam; the false prophets perish together."

Le Prophète Mahomet Al-Bîrûnî, al-âthâr al-bâqiya (Vestiges des siècles passé). BNF, Manuscrits (Arabe 1489 fol. 5v)
Notice the dark people on the far left. If Mohammed was a black man, why isn't he depicted like the 2 in the bottom left?
Illustration showing Mohammed (on the right) preaching his final sermon to his earliest converts, on Mount Ararat near Mecca; taken from a medieval-era manuscript of the astronomical treatise The Remaining Signs of Past Centuries by the Persian scholar al-Biruni; currently housed in the collection of the Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris (Manuscrits Arabe 1489 fol. 5v). This scene was popular among medieval Islamic artists, and several nearly identical versions of this drawings.
