It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Is Saba the name of a man, a woman, or a region?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "It is the name of a man who had ten sons. Six of them settled in Yemen and four in Syria. Those who settled in Yemen were: Madhhij, Kindah, Azd, Ash'ariyyin, Anmar, and all the Arabs of Himyar. And those who settled in Syria were: Lakhm, Juzam, Amilah, and Ghassan."
