In the references of authentic prophetic sayings that tell of the ability of his sight one finds many reports of his seeing angels and devils.

Although the Prophet was far from Jerusalem, he saw the City and described it to the Koraysh.

During the “Time of Ignorance”, Abu Rukana who was known for his incredible strength wrestled three times with the Messenger of Allah and each time Abu Rukana was defeated, and the Prophet invited him to Islam.

As for his gait, Abu Hurayrah said, "I never saw anyone walk more swiftly than the Messenger of Allah . It was as if the earth rolled up for him, we would be exhausted but there were no signs of weariness upon him at all." It is also reported that when he walked, it was as if he were coming down a slope.

Among the Prophet's qualities was his laugh which was that of a broad smile. When he turned to face someone, he would look at them directly. When he walked, he walked as if he were walking down a slope.

The Perfection of the Prophet's Speech

There are many reports of the Prophet's mastery of the Arabic tongue together with his eloquence and fluency of speech. When he spoke he was very concise, skilful in debate and expressed things clearly. His speech was well structured, free from all affectation and he used sound meanings.

He was adept in all the different dialects of Arabia and able to converse
with each community using their own classical expressions. When they debated or argued with him he replied using their regular phrasing, and there were several occasions when his Companions were unable to understand what he said and requested him to explain. This is verifiable by anyone who has studied the science of Prophetic Quotations and his biography.

The way in which he spoke to the Koraysh of Mecca and the Ansar of Medina, or the people of the Hijaz or Najd was different from the way in which he spoke to Dhul Mishar Al Hamdhani, Tahfah Al Handi, Katan, Haritha Al Ulaymi's son, Al Ashath, Kays' son, Wail, Hujr Al Kindi's son and other chieftains of the Hadramat and the kings of Yemen.
