The blessed palms of the Noble Master ﷺ

As narrated by Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه, كان رسول اللّٰه صلى اللّٰه علیه وسلم ضخم الكفین. the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ had very soft hands. His hands were softer than silk, and despite their strength, they were incredibly gentle. When he grasped something, his grip was firm, and when he wielded a weapon, he did so with great power. Yet, his hands maintained a unique softness, coolness, and smoothness. Sayyiduna Anas ibn Malik رضي الله عنه reported, ما مسست حریرا ولا دیباجا قط ألین من كف رسول اللّٰه صلى اللّٰه علیه وسلم "I have never touched silk or brocade that was softer than the hand of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." Hazrat Mathni ibn Saleh narrated from his grandfather, قال: صافحت رسول اللّٰه صلى اللّٰه علیه وسلم فلم أر واللّٰه كفا ألین من كفه صلى اللّٰه علیه وسلم. "He said: 'I shook hands with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and by Allah, I have never seen a hand softer than his hand.'" The blessed palms of the Noble Messenger ﷺ were soft, smooth, and also cool. Hazrat Abu Juhaifah narrated on the authority of his father, "When the Beloved Prophet ﷺ went to Abtah, he planted a stick in the ground as a ‘Sutrah’ (a barrier placed in front of a person praying to separate them from people passing by) and prayed facing it. Afterwards, his companions began to pass their faces over his blessed hand. I also came and took his blessed hand and passed it over my face, and it was colder than ice and more fragrant than musk. When he gestured, he would do so with his entire palm. When expressing surprise or wonder, he would turn his palm. When speaking, he ﷺ would include his palm. He would strike the thumb of his left hand on the inner part of his right palm. And according to a narration by Alwi, He would strike the thumb of His right hand on the palm of His left hand.
