Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amr Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) pointed with his hand towards Yemen and said: "Indeed, faith is over there, in Yemen. Yes, and harshness and hard-heartedness are among those people who drive the camels by holding their tails, from where the horns of Satan will appear, that is, among the tribes of Rabi'ah and Mudar."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "The people of Yemen have come to you; they are soft-hearted and tender-hearted. Understanding of religion is among the people of Yemen, and wisdom is also from Yemen."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The peak of disbelief is in the East, and pride and arrogance are found among those who keep horses, camels, and landowners, who are usually the inhabitants of villages, while tranquility is found among those who keep goats."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: Pride and arrogance are found among the owners of camels who shout and make noise, while gentleness and tenderness are found among the shepherds of goats. And faith is in Yemen, and wisdom (Hadith) is also Yemeni.
