Prophet Muhammad said, "The first group to enter the Paradise will be like the full moon…… every man will be in the height of their father Adam who was sixty cubits tall."
The description of several of the prophets has been made known to us by Prophet Muhammad who tells us, "I saw Moses, he was slender with wavy hair and his nose was long with a slight raise in the middle . He resembled the men of Shanu'a. I saw Jesus, he was of medium height with a reddish face, just as if he had come out after having taken a hot bath."
Of himself the Prophet said, "Among the descendants of Abraham, I am the one who most resembles him."
The Prophet gave additional information about Moses saying, "He is like the best men you have ever seen with a dark complexion."
Abu Hurayrah tells us, "After Prophet Lot, Allah did not send a prophet
except that he was from the most elite members of his nation.
When Heraclius (Emperor of Rome), asked about the Prophet he said, "I questioned you about his lineage and you told me that he was of noble lineage. That is the characteristic of all the Messengers that were sent, all were from a noble lineage."
There are many references to the prophets and messengers who were preferred by Allah in the Holy Koran, some of which are mentioned below:
Of Prophet Job, Allah says, "We found him to be patient, a good worshiper and he was penitent" (38:44).
Of Prophet John, Allah says, "'O John, hold fast to the Book' and We bestowed upon him judgment while yet a child, and tenderness from Us and purity, and he was cautious; honoring his parents, being neither arrogant nor rebellious. Peace be upon him on the day he was born and the day he dies, and on the day when he is raised up alive" (19:12-15).
