He pointed with his hand and said: "Four," and al-Bara' would point with his hand and say: "My hand is shorter than the hand of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): the lame one whose lameness is obvious, the one-eyed one whose defect is obvious, the sick one whose illness is obvious, and the emaciated one that has no marrow."
