Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Ibn Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, was dark-complexioned and well-built. His izār (lower garment) reached halfway up his shins, and he had a thick head of hair (jummah). He would trim his mustache so short it seemed as if he plucked it. He used to unbutton his shirt, and when traveling, he would wear his izār over his shirt. He would dye his beard yellow and trim whatever exceeded a fistful of his beard.
