حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ أَنْبَأَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ أَنْبَأَ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَائِذٍ الْأَزْدِيِّ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبَسَةَ السُّلَمِيِّ قَالَ
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَعْرِضُ الْخَيْلَ وَعِنْدَهُ عُيَيْنَةُ بْنُ بَدْرِ الْفَزَارِيُّ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَنَا أَعْلَمُ بِالْخَيْلِ مِنْكَ» فَقَالَ عُيَيْنَةُ وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ بِالرِّجَالِ مِنْكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَمَنْ خَيْرٌ الرِّجَالُ؟» قَالَ رِجَالٌ يَحْمِلُونَ سُيُوفَهُمْ عَلَى عَوَاتِقِهِمْ وَرِمَاحِهِمْ عَلَى مَنْاسِجِ خُيُولِهِمْ مِنْ رِجَالِ نَجْدٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَذَبْتَ بَلْ خَيْرُ الرِّجَالِ رِجَالُ الْيَمَنِ وَالْإِيمَانُ يَمَانٍ إِلَى لَخْمٍ وَجُذَامٍ وَمَأْكُولُ حِمْيَرَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أُكُلِهَا وَحَضْرَمُوتُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ بَنِي الْحَارِثِ وَاللَّهِ مَا أُبَالِي لَوْ هَلَكَ الْحَارِثَانِ جَمِيعًا لَعَنَ اللَّهُ الْمُلُوكَ الْأَرْبَعَةَ جَمْدًا وَمِخْوَسًا وَأَبْضَعَةَ وَأُخْتَهُمُ الْعَمَرَّدَةَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَمَرَنِي رَبِّي أَنْ أَلْعَنَ قُرَيْشًا مَرَّتَيْنِ فَلَعَنْتُهُمْ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنَّ أُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَصَلَّيْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ مَرَّتَيْنِ مَرَّتَيْنِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «لَعَنَ اللَّهُ تَمِيمَ بْنَ مُرَّةَ خَمْسًا وَبَكْرَ بْنَ وَائِلٍ سَبْعًا وَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ قَبِيلَتَيْنِ مِنْ قَبَائِلِ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ مُقَاعِسَ وَمُلَادِسَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «عُصَيَّةُ عَصَتِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ عَبْدُ قَيْسٍ وَجَعْدَةُ وَعِصْمَةُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَسْلَمُ وَغِفَارٌ وَمُزَيْنَةُ وَأَحْلَافُهُمْ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدٍ وَتَمِيمٍ وَغَطَفَانَ وَهَوَازِنَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «شَرُّ قَبِيلَتَيْنِ فِي الْعَرَبِ نَجْرَانَ وَبَنُو تَغْلِبَ وَأَكْثَرُ الْقَبَائِلِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مَذْحِجٍ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was reviewing horses while 'Uyaynah b. Badr al-Fazari was with him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: “I know more about horses than you.” 'Uyaynah said: “And I know more about men than you.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Then who are the best men?” He said: “Men who carry their swords on their shoulders and their spears on the withers of their horses, from the men of Najd.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “You lie. Rather, the best men are the men of Yemen, and faith is Yemeni, extending to Lakhm, Judham, and the protected lands of Himyar. A morsel of Himyar is better than its eater, and Hadramawt is better than Banu al-Harith. By Allah, I would not care if the two Hariths perished altogether. May Allah curse the four kings: Jamd, Mikhwas, Abda'ah, and their sister al-'Amarradah.” Then he said: “My Lord commanded me to curse Quraysh twice, so I cursed them, and He commanded me to pray for them, so I prayed for them twice, twice.” Then he said: “May Allah curse Tamim b. Murrah five times, and Bakr b. Wa'il seven times. May Allah curse two tribes of Banu Tamim: Muqā'is and Mulādis.” Then he said: “'Usayyah disobeyed Allah and His Messenger; 'Abd Qays, Ja'dah, and 'Ismah.” Then he said: “Aslam, Ghifar, Muzaynah, and their allies from Juhaynah are better than Banu Asad, Tamim, Ghatafan, and Hawazin in the sight of Allah on the Day of Resurrection.” Then he said: “The worst two tribes among the Arabs are Najran and Banu Taghlib, and the most numerous tribe in Paradise is Madhhij.”
