伊本·萨德记载,阿伊莎愿真主喜悦她,她说:有人对她说:“给我们描述一下艾布·伯克尔。”她说:“他是一个肤色白皙的人,身材纤瘦,面颊消瘦,身体微驼;他的下衣总是滑落到腰际;脸颊瘦削,双眼深陷,额头突出,双手手背上几乎没有肉。这就是他的外貌描述。”他还记载,阿伊莎愿真主喜悦她说,艾布·伯克尔曾用指甲花和靛蓝(katam)染过[他的头发和胡须]。

Ibn Sacd narrated that cA’ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, said that a man said to her, ‘Describe Abu Bakr to us.’ She said, ‘A fair man, of slender build, thin cheeked and with a stoop; he could not keep his lower garment from slipping over his loins; gaunt-faced, eyes deep-set, with a prominent forehead, and the backs of his hands fleshless. This is his description.’ He narrated that cA’ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, said that Abu Bakr used to dye [his hair and beard] with henna and indigo (katam).

他转述说，安斯说：真主的使者ﷺ来到麦地那，他的同伴中没有一人头发夹杂着黑白两色，只有艾布·伯克尔例外，于是他用指甲花和靛蓝（{katam}）为其染发。

He narrated that Anas said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, went to Madinah and there was no-one among his companions having hair of mixed white and black except Abu Bakr, so he dyed it with henna and indigo {katam).
