Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: When this surah was revealed (Allah Almighty says): "When the help of Allah and the victory come," he recited it to the end. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was informed of his passing when it was revealed, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) began to strive harder than ever in worship for the matter of the Hereafter. After that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The victory has come, the help of Allah has come, and the people of Yemen have come." A man said: "O Messenger of Allah, what are the people of Yemen like?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They are people whose hearts are tender and gentle; faith is Yemeni and understanding is Yemeni."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat with various chains, and added the words: "And wisdom is Yemeni." The narrators of one of its chains are the narrators of the "Sahih".
