伊本·赛尔德与哈基姆转述道：津尔尔说：我与麦迪那人一同出门过开斋节，我看见欧麦尔赤着脚走路，他是一位老人，秃顶，肤色黄褐，惯用左手，身材高大，比众人高出一截，仿佛骑在牲畜之上。瓦基德说：在我们这里并不知道欧麦尔肤色黄褐，除非是有人在饥荒之年见到他，因为他吃橄榄油时肤色会发生变化。

Ibn Sacd and al-Hakim narrated that Zirr said: I went out with the people of Madinah on the day of cEid and I saw cUmar walking barefoot, an old man, balding, of a tawny colour, left-handed, tall, towering over people as if he were on a riding beast. Al-Waqidi said: It is not known among us that cUmar was tawny, unless he saw him in the year of the drought, because his colour changed when he ate olive oil.

伊本·萨阿德转述，伊本·欧麦尔描述欧麦尔时说：他肤色白皙、带有红润，身材高大，头顶秃发，鬓发斑白。

Ibn Sacd narrated that Ibn cUmar described cUmar and said: A man of fair complexion, with a ruddy tint prevailing, tall, balding and grey-haired.

他叙述道：乌baydah·本·乌迈尔说：欧麦尔身材高过人们。

He narrated that cUbaydah ibn cUmayr said: cUmar used to overtop people in height.

他叙述说，萨拉马·本·阿克瓦尔说：欧麦尔左右手并用，意思是他双手同时使用。

He narrated that Salamah ibn al-Akwac said: cUmar was left and right-handed, meaning that he used both hands together.

Ibn cAsakir 记载，Abu Raja’ al-cUtaridi 说：cUmar 身材高大魁梧，头顶极其秃，肤色白皙而泛红，两颊的胡须稀疏，他的小胡子很大，末端泛红，根部则是黑色的。

Ibn cAsakir narrated that Abu Raja’ al-cUtaridi said: cUmar was a tall stout man, extremely bald, fair but extremely ruddy, in the two sides of his beard a lightness, his moustache was large and at its extremities there was a redness at the roots of which there was black.

在伊本·阿萨基尔的《大马士革史》中，通过多条传述路线记载：欧麦尔·本·赫塔卜的母亲是欣塔迈（Hantamah），她是希沙姆·本·穆吉拉的女儿，也是艾布·杰赫勒·本·希沙姆的姐妹，因此艾布·杰赫勒是他的舅舅。

In the Tarikh of Ibn cAsakir by various routes there is that the mother of cUmar ibn al-Khattab was Hantamah the daughter of Hisham ibn al-Mughirah and she was the sister of Abu Jahl ibn Hisham, so that Abu Jahl was his maternal uncle.
