The Laughing Of Rasoolullah

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

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.‏‏.‏
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'!”
Narrated by Jabir ibn Samura said (may Allah be well pleased with him):
