عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ سَبَإٍ مَا هُوَ أَرَجُلٌ أَمِ امْرَأَةٌ أَمْ أَرْضٌ فَقَالَ بَلْ هُوَ رَجُلٌ وَلَدَ عَشَرَةً فَسَكَنَ الْيَمَنَ مِنْهُمْ سِتَّةٌ وَبِالشَّامِ مِنْهُمْ أَرْبَعَةٌ فَأَمَّا الْيَمَانِيُّونَ فَمَذْحِجٌ وَكِنْدَةُ وَالْأَزْدُ وَالْأَشْعَرِيُّونَ وَأَنْمَارٌ وَحِمْيَرُ عَرَبًا كُلُّهَا وَأَمَّا الشَّامِيَّةُ فَلَخْمٌ وَجُذَامٌ وَعَامِلَةُ وَغَسَّانُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about Saba: was it a man, a woman, or the name of a land? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: He was a man, he had ten children, among them six settled in Yemen and four in Syria. The Yemenis are: Madhhij, Kindah, Azd, Ash'ari, Anmar, and Himyar; all of these were Arabs. And the Syrians are: Lakhm, Juzam, Amilah, and Ghassan.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … What is meant by having ten children is that these ten men are all from the descendants of Saba; some are his sons, some are grandsons, and some are great-grandsons, etc.
