عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَقَالَ : " أَتَاكُمْ أَهْلُ الْيَمَنِ كَقِطَعِ السَّحَابِ خَيْرُ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ " . فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِمَّنْ كَانَ عِنْدَهُ : وَمِنَّا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَقَالَ كَلِمَةً خَفِيَّةً : " إِلَّا أَنْتُمْ " .
Sayyiduna Jubayr bin Mut'im (may Allah be pleased with him) states: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his head, looked towards the sky and said: "The people of Yemen will come to you like pieces of cloud (bringing benefit), and they are the best of the people of the earth." (The narrator states:) One of those present with him said: "O Messenger of Allah! And from among us?" (That is, are some of us also among the best?) So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in a low voice: "Except that your case is different."
وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ : بَيْنَا نَحْنُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بِطَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ إِذْ قَالَ : " يَطْلُعُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلُ الْيَمَنِ كَأَنَّهُمُ السَّحَابُ ، هُمْ خِيَارُ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ " . فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ : وَلَا نَحْنُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَسَكَتَ فَقَالَ : وَلَا نَحْنُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَسَكَتَ ، قَالَ : وَلَا نَحْنُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَقَالَ كَلِمَةً ضَعِيفَةً : " إِلَّا أَنْتُمْ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَأَبُو يَعْلَى ، إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ : فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ : إِلَّا نَحْنُ . وَالْبَزَّارُ بِنَحْوِهِ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَأَحَدُ إِسْنَادَيْ أَحْمَدَ ، وَإِسْنَادُ أَبِي يَعْلَى ، وَالْبَزَّارُ رِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
In one narration the words are: "We were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the road to Makkah when he said: 'The people of Yemen will come to you; they will be like clouds (bringing benefit), and they will be the best of the people on the face of the earth.' A man from the Ansar said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Are we not?' (That is, are we not the best people on the face of the earth?) The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. The man said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Are we not?' The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. The man said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Are we not?' Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in a low voice: 'Except that your case is different.'"
Ahmad and Abu Ya'la recorded it, but Abu Ya'la recorded these words: "A man from the Ansar said: 'Except that our case is different.'" Al-Bazzar recorded something similar. The narrators of one of Ahmad's two chains, and of the chains of Abu Ya'la and al-Bazzar, are the narrators of the Sahih.

وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَخْرُجُ مِنْ عَدَنَ اثْنَا عَشَرَ أَلْفًا يَنْصُرُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ، هُمْ خَيْرُ مَنْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ " .
قَالَ الْمُعْتَمِرُ : أَظُنُّهُ قَالَ : فِي الْأَعْمَاقِ . رَوَاهُ أَبُو يَعْلَى ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ وَقَالَ : " مِنْ عَدَنَ أَبْيَنَ " . وَرِجَالُهُمَا رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرَ مُنْذِرٍ الْأَفْطَسِ ، وَهُوَ ثِقَةٌ .

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Twelve thousand people will come out of Aden who will help Allah Almighty and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and they will be the best of those between me and them." Mu'tamir, a narrator, says: I think the narration has the words: "in al-A'maq."
Abu Ya'la and al-Tabarani recorded it, but al-Tabarani recorded the words: "from Aden Abyan." The narrators of both are the narrators of the Sahih, except Mundhir al-Aftas, and he is thiqah (trustworthy).

وَعَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ : أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ : بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَقَالَ : " لَعَلَّكَ أَنْ تَمُرَّ بِقَبْرِي وَمَسْجِدِي ، وَقَدْ بَعَثْتُكَ إِلَى قَوْمٍ رَقِيقَةً قُلُوبُهُمْ ، يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ مَرَّتَيْنِ ، فَقَاتِلْ بِمَنْ أَطَاعَكَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ عَصَاكَ ، ثُمَّ يَفِيئُونَ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ حَتَّى تُبَادِرَ الْمَرْأَةُ زَوْجَهَا ، وَالْوَلَدُ وَالِدَهُ ، وَالْأَخُ أَخَاهُ ، فَانْزِلْ بَيْنَ الْحَيَّيْنِ السَّكُونِ وَالسَّكَاسِكِ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَرِجَالُهُمَا ثِقَاتٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ يَزِيدَ بْنَ قُطَيْبٍ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ مُعَاذٍ .
Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) states: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to send me to Yemen, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It may be that you will later pass by my grave and my mosque. I am sending you to a people whose hearts are soft, and who fight for the truth twice. Fight, together with those of them who obey you, against those who disobey you. Then they will return to Islam, until (in accepting Islam) the woman will race ahead of her husband, the child ahead of his father, and the brother ahead of his brother. Settle between the two tribes, al-Sakun and al-Sakasik."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani recorded it, and the narrators of both are thiqat (trustworthy), except that the narrator Yazid bin Qutayb did not hear from Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) states: Once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was in Madinah, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest)! When the help of Allah and the victory have come, and the people of Yemen have come, a people whose hearts are pure and whose obedience is excellent (the narrator is unsure: or perhaps he said some similar word). Faith is Yemeni, understanding (fiqh) is Yemeni, and wisdom is Yemeni."
Al-Bazzar recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, al-Husayn bin Isa bin Muslim al-Hanafi, whom Ibn Hibban declared thiqah (trustworthy) and whom the majority declared da'if (weak). The remaining narrators of this report are the narrators of the Sahih.

وَعَنْ حَيَّانَ بْنِ بِسْطَامٍ الْهُذَلِيِّ قَالَ : كُنَّا عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، فَذَكَرُوا حَاجَّ الْيَمَنِ وَمَا يَصْنَعُونَ فِيهِ ، فَسَبَّهُمْ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ : لَا تَسُبُّوا أَهْلَ الْيَمَنِ ; فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " زَيْنُ الْحَاجِّ أَهْلُ الْيَمَنِ " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ وَالْكَبِيرِ ، وَإِسْنَادُهُ حَسَنٌ ، فِيهِ ضُعَفَاءُ وُثِّقُوا .
Hayyan bin Bistam al-Hudhali states: We were with Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both). People mentioned the pilgrims of Yemen and their conduct during the Hajj, and some of those present spoke ill of them. So Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "Do not speak ill of the people of Yemen! For I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'The adornment of the pilgrims is the people of Yemen.'"

Curse the people of Yemen, for they are formidable fighters, their numbers are great and their fortresses are strong." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No!" Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the non-Arabs. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When they (that is, the people of Yemen) pass by you, they will be travelling with their women, carrying their children on their shoulders. They are from me and I am from them."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani recorded it, but al-Tabarani recorded these words: "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the non-Arabs, that is, the people of Persia and the people of Rome." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When the people of Yemen pass by you, they will be travelling with their women, carrying their children on their shoulders. They are from me and I am from them." The chain of both reports is hasan (good), and the narrator Baqiyyah has explicitly stated that he heard it directly.

وَعَنْ أَبِي ثَوْرٍ الْفَهْمِيِّ قَالَ : كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَوْمًا ، فَأُتِيَ بِثَوْبٍ مِنْ ثِيَابِ الْمَعَافِرِ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ : لَعَنَ اللَّهُ هَذَا الثَّوْبَ ، وَلَعَنَ مَنْ يَعْمَلُهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " لَا تَلْعَنْهُمْ ; فَإِنَّهُمْ مِنِّي ، وَأَنَا مِنْهُمْ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَإِسْنَادُهُمَا حَسَنٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Thawr al-Fahmi (may Allah be pleased with him) states: One day we were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when a garment of Ma'afiri cloth (that is, Yemeni cloth) was brought. Abu Sufyan said: "May Allah Almighty curse this garment, and curse whoever makes it." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not curse them! For they are from me and I am from them."

وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ : خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَنَحْنُ جُلُوسٌ ، فَأَوْسَعْنَا لَهُ فَجَلَسَ ، وَقَالَ : " أَيْنَ أَصْحَابِي الَّذِينَ أَنَا مِنْهُمْ ، وَهُمْ مِنِّي ؟ وَأَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ ، وَيَدْخُلُونَهَا مَعِي ؟ " . فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَخْبِرْنَا قَالَ : " نَعَمْ . أَهْلُ الْيَمَنِ الْمُطَرَّحِينَ فِي أَطْرَافِ الْأَرْضِ ، الْمَدْفُوعُونَ عَنْ أَبْوَابِ السُّلْطَانِ ، يَمُوتُ أَحَدُهُمْ وَحَاجَتُهُ فِي صَدْرِهِ لَمْ يَقْضِهَا " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ جَمَاعَةٌ فِيهِمْ خِلَافٌ . قُلْتُ : وَقَدْ تَقَدَّمَتْ أَحَادِيثُ فِي فَضْلِ قَبَائِلِ الْعَرَبِ يَتَضَمَّنُ بَعْضُهَا أَهْلَ الْيَمَنِ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) states: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us while we were sitting. We made room for him and he (peace and blessings be upon him) sat down. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Where are those Companions of mine, of whom I am and who are of me? When I enter Paradise, they will enter it with me." We said: "O Messenger of Allah! Will you tell us?" (That is, who is meant by this?) The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes! They are the people of Yemen, who are pushed away to the far ends of the earth and turned away from the doors of the rulers; one of them dies with his need still in his breast, never having fulfilled it."
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains a group of narrators about whom there is disagreement.
(Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Before this, some hadith have passed on the virtues of the various Arab tribes, which also include mention of the people of Yemen.
