Is there any hadeeth about Mo,jzat(divine gift)of prophet Mohammad Sal@ which clearifies that prot Mohammad Sal@ did not have his shade on earth while walking.

Answer

Zakwaan reports that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) never had a
shadow. This narration is recorded by Hakim Tirmidhi. (Seek al-Khasaaisul
Kubrah of Suyyooti vol.1 pg.164; Subulul Hudaa war rashaad vol.2 pg.90 and
Sharh zarqaani alal mawaahib vol.7 pg.200)

Imam Zurqaani also states that Imaams ibnul Jawzi and ibnul Mubaarak have
reported on the authority of Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Abbaas (Radhiallaahu
Anhu) that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) did not have a shadow.
(Sharhu Zurqaani vol.7 pg.200.

However, the authenticity of these narrators still remain unclear to us.
