http://scholarspen.blogspot.com/2007/04/handsome-eyes-of-our-beloved-mustafa.html from the article by mawlana munawwar:The eyelashes were “long” and “full” The blessed eyebrows were “long” and shaped like a “bow” The eyebrows were “perfect” and “never met in the middle” above the nose In the affairs of Allah, the beloved’s anger would appear as such that a vane would clearly appear filled by blood in between his eyebrows rising over his forehead ---- alaHazrat imam aHmed riDa khan describes this beauty in various couplets: jin key sajdeh ko miHrab e ka'abah jhuki un bhawoN ki laTafat pey lakhoN salam the miHrab [niche] of ka'abah bows down for his prostration, a billion salawat on the fineness of his brows [the niche is shaped like a bow, and the poet - raHimahullah - describes the fine, arched-as-a-bow brows in terms of the arch of the ka'abah] ---- chashma e mihr meiN mawj nur e jalal us rag e hashimiyyat pey lakhoN salam the awesome waves of light gush in the wellspring, that is the sun - a billion salawat on the noble hashemi vein with reference to the vein mentioned above, when it appeared on the forehead of the Master; also a reference to the royal lineage of the master sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam. 'jalal', meaning majestic and glorious is also used as 'righteous anger' in urdu. --- hai jalwah gah e nur e ilahi wo ruu qawsayn ki maanind haiN donoN abruu the light of the Lord shines in his face both his brows are like two arched bows --- shab liHyah o sharib hai rukh e raushan din geysu o shab e qadr o barat e mu'min mizhgaN ki safeN char haiN do abru haiN wa'l fajr ke pahlu meiN layalin `ashrin his blessed beard and moustache are the night; and his radiant face, the day his [dark] tresses are the Night of Power and 'Deliverance for the believer' the rows of his blessed eyelashes are four, and his brows are two ten nights in the vicinage of the rising morn. the dark hair of the beloved sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam are of ten kinds: 2 tresses, 2 brows, 4 rows of eyelashes, the moustache and the beard; his radiant face, fair and bright is like the day. there is a connotation from the qur'an: wa'l fajr wa layalin ashr: by the [rising]morning and the ten nights. his tresses are like the two great nights: laylatu'l qadr and laylah al-bara'ah; and their literal meanings: that of immense importance [qadr] and deliverance [bara'at]. --- aaj eyd e `ashiqaN hai gar khuda chahey ke woh abru e paywasta kaa aalam dikhatey jayeN gey today, is the day of rejoicement [eyd] for those who love him; and if Allah wishes; he [the Prophet] shall show us the state of his entwined brows [a metaphor to say that he shall release us from imprisonment as mufti a'azam hind says: salasil maSayib ke abru sey kaaTo kahan tak masayib gawara karuN maiN? shatter these chains of agony with your brows how long should i bear these miseries? because the brows of the beloved are also described as arched and thin like a sword. --- terey abru ke taSadduq pyare band karrey haiN giraftaroN ke by the charity of thy beautiful brows [release us] the bonds of the imprisoned are hard ---- kham e zulf e nabi, sajid haiN miHrab e do abru meiN ke ya rab tu hi wali hai siyah karan e ummat kaa the curved tresses of the prophet prostate in the niche of his brows, [praying] O Lord Almighty, you are the only Deliverer of these sinners of my nation. the visualization when the prophet falls in prostration to the Lord Almighty for forgiveness [shafa'ah] of his ummah; when he bows down, his blessed forelocks fall in the arches of his blessed brows. --- more later inshaAllah.
i asked mawlana munawwar last week and he said that the blessed brows had a lot of hair but were nevertheless thin.
jis Taraf uTh gayi dam meiN dam aa gaya us nigaahe 'inaayat pe lakhoN salaam mawlana munawwar 'ateeq has done a short piece on the beautiful eyes of the messenger sallAllahu 'alaihi wasallam. it is at http://www.scholarspen.blogspot.com/ he writes: 7. The eyebrows were “fine” and not “thick” described as "دَقِيقَ الحَاجِبَين". now, i always thought that the eyebrows of the beloved muSTafa sallAllahu 'alaihi wasallam were thick.
